Java Developers Kit (JDK) |
In order to program in Java you must have the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) module installed on your computer. It comes with the JDK. You can install the latest version that includes NetBeans but it is not necessary. We use NetBeans in Programming 2. |
BlueJ |
BlueJ is the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that we use in Programming 1. Click the link on the left to get to BlueJ.org, then select the download link. Follow the directions for choosing the correct version. |
Class Template not available online. Please see the directions on the right to find out how to obtain this file. |
Notice: You will want to replace the default template that comes wit the BlueJ download with the modified template that we use in Programming 1.
