Introduction to Java

Work through these slides. As you read, think about and answer the questions at the bottom of each page. These will be your first experience with Java, so make sure you follow each step closely.

11. Starting Notepad

Answer:

Yes.

An alternative to all of the above (for both Win 7 and Win 8) is to navigate to a convenient folder (using File Explorer),
then SHIFT-RIGHT click in the file listing of that directory and pick "Open Command Window Here" from the menu.
You should see a command window similar to the previous page.

Starting Notepad

Start NotePad from the command prompt:

C:Users\TEMP> notepad

C:Users\TEMP>

Windows 8:

C:\Users\YourName\JavaSource>notepad

C:\Users\YourName\JavaSource>

Notepad starts in its own window.

Question 11:
Is all this getting to be just too much?
