Java Bootcamp: Day 4

So I’m behind, obviously. I started this chapter like two days ago maybe? Yesterday I spent ALL day working on various bits for a contracted app and got rather carried away. The almost-9-hour Skype call with Keith helped keep me focused, I think. So I didn’t study… but it wasn’t for naught!

Day 4: Lists, Logic and Loops
Today’s chapter focused on lists, logic and loops. Oh my! Surprise, considering the title. The thing that irritated me was what I learned about arrays. They’re very inflexible. Then I hear from friends about ArrayList, but alas – not in my book! Just an example of having to learn outside of a single source.

For loops are the same as I’m used to, as are while (and god forbid do) loops. Ternary operators are close, but better.

Another easy day, but considering everything else going on – that’s a wonderful thing.

I gotta say, i’m not the procedural type so im not all into java and whatnot. But this color scheme is hideous lol. Nice CSS thou. Very clean code. The feed burner drops are nice too. I was thinking you should make a masthead in photoshop and maybe move the twitter updates under it in large-ish print, like a headline. I like the feedburner drop-in but it feels too important. Also shrink the toc a few hundred pixels. It’s taking too much real-estate from your content. This is all imho of course.

I’m a guts man, not a face man. I found a simple and nice-ish theme somewhere awhile back and threw it on here. If I could do those things you mentioned I probably would, but not me! I’m not the type, lol.

I’m not into procedural things either, but I do like object oriented code – like Java (an object-oriented programming language).

Sooo… Your regular updating plans didn’t quite work out, eh? :p

Heh, the Java thing fell off (I have other things to concentrate on right now) and then I just couldn’t find anything worth posting about, really. I was tempted yesterday to do a pointless update like Adam did. :3
