ProgrammingRe: I Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by Javanian(op):
JAVA

Java
is an object oriented programming language originally developed by
James Gosling at Sun Microsystems (which has since merged into Oracle
Corporation). The language derives much of its syntax from C and C++,
but it has fewer low-level facilities than either of them. Java can be
used to create Desktop Applications, Web Applications, Console
Applications and Mobile Applications.

WHERE CAN I LEARN JAVA??

As with any language i will talk about here, they are tons and tons of
books and articles on the Internet that will teach you any of this
languages from beginner to intermediate level. The rest is upto you...

I will provide as much links to on-line tutorials as possible, but
Google is your friend.

EMBEDDED SYSTEMS

An embedded system is a multi-agent system and computer system designed for specific control functions within a larger system, often with real-time computing constraints.It is embedded as part of a complete device often including hardware and mechanical parts. By contrast, a general-purpose computer, such as a personal computer (PC), is designed to be flexible and to meet a wide range of end-user needs. Embedded systems control many devices in common use today examples of devices with embedded systems are telephone switches, mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), mp3 players, mobile phones, videogame consoles, digital cameras, DVD players, GPS, brushless DC motors, induction motors and DC motors.Embedded systems contain processing cores that are either microcontrollers or digital signal processors (DSP).

I don't know too much about embedded systems but i know embedded systems are created mainly with C and Assembly Language. I will come to programming languages later.

ProgrammingI Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by Javanian(op): 3:12pm On Dec 31, 2012
Due to the numerous "i want to start programming, which language should i start with" threads on this board i decided to create a thread that will address this issue. I am not a wonderful writer and i won't say i know it all but i will try. I urge every one on this board to correct me where i err an also contribute in whatever way you can to make this thread worth it. I will try as much as possible not to be biased in this write up.

I am not going to go into detail in defining what programming is because i will assume before entering this thread you should already know what programming is. But in summary programming is the act of creating whatever you want with your brain and computer programming is the act of creating whatever you want with your brain and a computer. You can read more from

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming

Programmers could also be called software programmers, software developers and other big-big names you can think of.

Feel free to ask your questions, i will try and answer the ones i can my Ogas in the house will help me with those i can't answer

Please every Programmer should try as much as possible to check on this thread once in a while to help answer some questions Newbies would like to ask.

ProgrammingRe: Problem with tracking word frequency[Java] by Javanian: 9:55pm On Dec 28, 2012
Why don't you just stick to the Scanner class to avoid complicating issues...
ProgrammingRe: Problem with tracking word frequency[Java] by Javanian: 9:44pm On Dec 28, 2012
But thats what i gave you now, all you need to do is read the text file to String, that isn't difficult now, or is that what you need?
ProgrammingRe: Problem with tracking word frequency[Java] by Javanian: 9:29pm On Dec 28, 2012
^^^

There are a lot of ways you can work around that code, but if you are to follow my implementation, you have to read the text file into a String...
ProgrammingRe: Problem with tracking word frequency[Java] by Javanian: 8:47pm On Dec 28, 2012
First of all, Next time please don't direct the problem to me, i have a life outside Nairaland you know grin and i may not always be available to help.
Next time you want to read from a text file use the classes in the java.io package and not the scanner class.
I wasn't able to re write the entire code beacause i didn't see all your classes, but we can still work out something.


while(reader.hasNext()){

word = reader.next();
// to be completed by students
int wordChecker = word.compareTo(reader.next());
if(wordChecker == 0) {
counter++;
}
container.insert(new Association(word,counter));
}
if i am right this is where you have problem with your code. Now i wrote a new class that handles this problem so it would be easy to re use my code in yours


import java.util.Scanner;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class TestAssociation
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
//Now i didnt read from a test file but i'm assuming this are
//all the words in your text file, so what you should do is read the entire
//text file to a string

String value = "aaa bbb ccc ddd aaa ccc aaa aaa";

//basically, what this does is split all the words in the string above
//into a an array using a white space as a delimiter, so you can add more
//patterns to the delimiter as the case may be

String[] values = value.split("\\s"wink;

//Now i wrote a checkNum method as you can see below that checks the number
//of times each word you pass into it as parameter
//so for example your text file has the String "Java is really really great"
//the word "Java" will be value[0], so you pass in value[0] and value(which is the array itself)
//as parameter

System.out.println(checkNum(values[2], values));

//so in your code you can now do something like
//container.insert(new Association(word,checkNum(values[2], values));
//in your iterator

}
public static int checkNum(String value, String[] values)
{
int counter = 0;
for(int i =0; i <values.length; i++)
{
if(value.equals(values[i]))
{
counter++;
}
}
return counter;
}

}

ProgrammingFlexbean: Netbeans Free Alternative To Flexbuilder In 10 Easy Steps! by Javanian(op): 9:11pm On Dec 21, 2012
After downloading Flex SDK and documentation last week, I came to know about Adobe FlexBuilder, a commercial tool available from Adobe website to develop flex applications. I was really disappointed when i was not able to find even a single free alternativeto FlexBuilder. FlexBuilder is basically based upon eclipse and as soon as I came to know about it, I start wondering if something similar is available for NetBeans as well. And here it is. After some googling around, I found a plugin for NetBeans which would allow me to develop Flex Applications for free. Its pretty easy to install and configure. The only downsidebeing that it won’t give you code auto-complete feature. But anyways, as a beginner its good for me to write my own code instead of making bad habit of code to auto-complete. Below is a quick walkthrough of how I was able toinstall flex plugin into my NetBeans IDE in just 10 easy steps.

1. To download the FlexBean plugin, [url=http://sourceforge.net/projects/flexbean/files/FlexBean/1.1.1%20%28Win%2C%20Linux%2C%20Mac%29/org-netbeans-module-flexbean-1.1.1.nbm/download?use_mirror=nchc&use_mirror=nchc]click here[/url] .
2. Once downloaded, please start NetBeans IDE and click Tools >> Plugins
3. Now in “Plugins” dialog box select “Downloaded” Tab and click “Add Plugins…” button.
4. From “Add Plugins…” dialog please browse to the directory where you downloaded the flex bean plugin file and select it. Finally, click “Open” button to add the plugin to plugin list.
5. Now click “Install” button with FlexBean selected and you will be presented with a FlexBean installation wizard.
6. Click Next, accept the agreement, and finally click install to install the plugin in NetBeans.
7. Click finish and then close all the dialogs to return to NetBeans workbench.
8. To configure FlexBean plugin properly, it needs to know the location where the Flex SDK has been extracted. Click Tools >> Flex Platform.
9. From “Flex Platforms” dialog select"Add Platform…” Button and select the folder where you have extracted Flex SDK and click Next.
10. Finally, write a name of the platform in the next dialog and click Finish.
