I don't know if you program in Java

I do. Or at least I did once. It is the only language I ever got certified in. Not that I consider that any recommendation.

It took me just 3 weeks to go from zero Java to passing the three levels of Java certification that BrainBench offered back then (something like: Beginners, Advanced and Enterprise).

I was angling for a (senior) position in a startup my brother was getting involved with, that required Java.

(I kick it in to touch after my first telephone conference with the head honcho of the founding trio; he was a salesman, selling something that didn't exist, he didn't understand, and which he had no idea of how to create. But he talked up a storm and had secured $5,000,000 round 1 VC cash on the back of it. When pressed, he admitted that his main goal was a couple of years of fast cars and high living before folding the company.)

If not please try to figure out some stuff in this language. A very special experience.

I had to do so very recently in order to produce a Perl equivalent to a Java library.

Not a pleasant experience, hence why my aversion to javadoc and its ilk is so fresh in my mind.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
