Can someone help with very basic java programming?

I know how to make object A move when it is clicked on and dragged. What I need to know is how to make Object B move both itself and A (relative to B) when it is clicked on and dragged?Can someone help with very basic java programming?
Assuming your visual objects are Swing components in the same JFrame, you could enable a MouseMotionListener when Object B is clicked-on. Then adjust Object A via Component.setLocation() per each MouseEvent detected with Object B drags.

Best to google and build your own list of bookmarks.

What is a good college for computer programming?

It really depends on which state you want to be in, how much you want to pay, and how good are you grades. I live in California so I only know about the schools here. There are many undergraduate universities that have great programs. UCDavis, San Jose State University, UCSB, UCLA, UCSD, Berkeley. If you want to go to get a masters, Santa Clara University and UCSB are good choices.





Of course, Stanford is always a good one.

  • What is the most difficult task in programming a computer?

    debugging I would say is the hardest part. It's not to bad figuring out what you want to do and how to do it but finding that one error in many lines of code, thats hard.What is the most difficult task in programming a computer?
    Searching uncaught Exception is most difficult task in computer programming.What is the most difficult task in programming a computer?
    Although the replies mentioned above are true from a industry perspective the hardest thing to program in a computer is common sense.





    All computers can do is crunch numbers. Information processing that happens in a 3yr old's brain is way surpassed than the fastest computer can think. Computers are not that good about parallel rule processing which are in the order of millions.
    Two things...both connected...





    When designing the user interface you have to try and get into the mind set of a user. That user could have no computer experience at all, or could be an IT manager. If you can figure out the way they want to use a screen before you send them the first draft it is the difference between happy paying customers and moany customers!





    The second again is the users, and trying to second guess what they actually mean when asking for a requirement. They usually say one thing, but mean a completely different thing. Trying to disect and interpret what they mean is the key to being a good software developer.





    At the end of the day 80% of programmers code fairly straightforward code. It's how you understand the problem and apply that straight forward code that is the hardest, and most important part.
    Getting the computer to do what you want is easy. Making a bomb proof user interface is the tricky part.
    Windows.
    Foreseeing what a program's users would want it to do, and how they'd want it to do it.





    The most annoying part is dealing with things that could go wrong; some things are so unusual that you can't help wondering if your program should be prepared to deal with it.





    The two above tasks come together when you're considering how you think your program's users would like your program to deal with circumstances that are extremely unlikely to ever happen.

    Whats up with mtv and the bad programming?

    As I was growing up they had cool shows but now they seem to being targeting kids that are still watching the disney channel. The channel just seems to be going down the drain with its bad programming.Whats up with mtv and the bad programming?
    When I was a teenager MTV used to play music videos.


    Yep, the programming has gone downhill bigtime over the last few years. I used to enjoy ';The Real World'; but now it seems to be cast with the most people they think will hook up.


    Pretty sad.

    What jobs can you get in computer programming?

    I was just wondering what jobs are avalible for computer programming because i am interested in what carrer option i want to choose


    Thanks


    GrantWhat jobs can you get in computer programming?
    Automated testing. I did this for 15 years. I regret retiring from it.

    Computer programming spans many diverse fields from manufacturing to services, to banking, to government/politics. It is used pervasively.
    Game Design.
    There are alot. My dad is a computer programmer. You can work at hospitals. Or publish things.
    Companies like IBM %26amp; EDS have openings right now. Speed up your education and get your asss out there now.
    What I did was learned micrososft access inside out back too front and vb...





    Got into a company or voluntary organisation, and developed real world systems (you can learn a terrific amount by doing this, by solving real world problems).





    If you get a hnc/hnd,degree keep in mind (while on these courses) that there is a strong possibility you will be working for yourself.





    Aim to develope, market and sell products for yourself, and become self employed...with this background - there is a stronger chance of a route into employment..

    There are many jobs for a programmer, the world is made up of programs that will need either programed from scratched or re-used. Every compnay that creates a piece of software, a game, a website etc will need a programmer!





    Also not only can you program, but you could teach it if you get bored of the same crap every day :-)
    The key question is what type of program do you want to build? e.g. a database, or a website, or a game?





    There are variety of programming languages and learn most of which are geared to a certain type of application or program.





    I would say you can't go wrong by starting off with Microsoft Visual Basic and also learn SQL programmimg.





    Your careers advisors will be well briefed on the computer industry.





    The gaming industry is also one of biggest and most profitable industries. Search YAHOO for video games testing to get you started.





    Hope this helps you - and good luck for the future!
    There are many options... in my oppinion.. its best to have a wide foundation so that if one thing doesn't work out.. something else will. To be a comptuer programmer, it is almost a new way of thinking. So, if you don't enjoy it after trying it.... then you probably shouldn't continue... maybe computer networking would be something you would enjoy better.... or building custom computers, or tech support... just figure out what you love to do, and apply yourself to that.





    Personally, I don't like testing! A lot of people say its a fun job... my cousin did testing on games.... which sounds like more fun than what I was doing, but I would much rather do some of the work and see the results instead of spending all day going through a bunch of options finding errors.





    If you like programming... there are many programming languages you need to choose from. C ++ is a popular one because it is used so widely.... java is pretty popular, the dotnet is pretty popular (this includes visual basic which I use currently, visual C#, asp.net, etc.). You need to decide whether you want to go at the web side of things or the windows application side.
    Computer programmers deal with every aspect of corporate life.


    From the web presentation to customers and business-to-business partners, to programming for internal departments and back-end processing. Basically, decide what else you like to do, like accounting, web presence, data base, inner workings of corporations, marketing, etc. Once you have this decided take courses that benefit both side of the coin. Some of the very best programmers in a specific industry, learned the business from the ground up.

    Check out digipen.com. It is very hard to get a job in computer programming for video games; it is like the major leagues. You may have to start out doing side projects, or application programming. Also, if you can get some guys together, you can do garage projects.
    If you are interested in programming, then you can get a job in almost any field. Since I started working commercially as a programmer, I have worked in Manufacturing, Electricity Utilities, Finance, Insurance, Education, Healthcare, ...





    And inside each field, there are lots of options as well - Website design, Server programming, Client Application programming, ...





    The basic question that no-one but you can answer is: Are you interested in designing solutions, or cutting code? Personally, I find programming really boring, because there is nothing to it - once the problem has been solved. So, I have shifted my way around to the position of Business Analysis - that way someone else can do the programming once I have solved the problems :-)

    Computer programming is the job really. Other branches if you like are ';Systems analysts'; or ';Systems designers'; who don't necesarily have to program.


    Testers - no programming again - although it helps.


    Trainers.


    Project Managers.


    Operators (rare breed nowadays)


    Database administrators.





    As I said, only programers on the whole do ';Computer programming). Testing is quite a good job, because it does not matter what computer language the package was written in i.e. you are not language dependant.


    Project managers on the other hand probably pays best, but does involve lots of travel usually.
    if you are going to college they should let you know everything
    These days Web Programming and Wireless Programming is getting popular.
