  • It is not letting me get into the course/program. Help!
  • Incompatibility issue is present, on windows machines. So it says it compiles but doesn't create a .class file. This was really difficult for me to figure out as a beginner. Had to ask multiple people before someone figured it out for me.

  • Unit test approach to programming is very important nova days. DrJava is the simplest way to do that.
  • I wish these guys would write compilers for C, C++, JS, Python, etc etc. They're the only developers who seem to be able to create an IDE that actually works and isn't a royal pain to install or use.
