ha good luck with that one - as of right now my phone is an old antique piece of junk that doesn't run anything

I Refuse to pay $200 for a piece of plastic that's out of date in 2 months.. I'm cheap when it comes to phones lol

Some good Java compilers:

Eclipse, when your ready for it...
BlueJ, Good to start off with.

I thought those were just IDE's and THE java compiler comes in the JDK from sun microsystems? I'm not sure though, so don't get pissed. and the main difference between c/c++ and java is that java is strictly OOP and c++ doesn't require you to program in classes but has them as an option anyway?
Java programs are slower and rapid dev is a lie? lolwut?

True. That's what I meant should have said IDE

I would say the main difference is that C++ can only execute on windows, because it doesn't have a runtime enviroment, but the OOP nature of it I would say makes it less error prone as well...

Yep, noticeably, but Open source programs are proven to develop faster. That's not saying all Java programs are open source. I'm just saying SUN is a proponent of open source.

You mean c++ programs compiled on windows only run on windows, right? not that c++ programs can't be compiled on different operating systems? Java programs compiled on windows that use no windows-specific components can be run on another operating system right? I'm not very knowledgeable with this stuff, I'm making guesses. please correct me lol

Come on why - you know better - your wordlist project must have your brain fried

Remember C/C++ on ms-dos? Linux? Unix? OS/2? Mac OS? 68000 chipsets (like the Amiga)? RISC chipsets? Embedded devices? C++ works on anything you have a compiler for

(though some platforms may not support everything). With the right tools you can even build a C++ app for an embedded devices with 3rd party MCUs on windows and then simply flash it's memory with the compiled program. (have a cool CortexM3 dev board for that i tinker around with)

Main difference is:
Java = Intermediate Language = Compile once, Run on any platform that has a JVM for it (Java Virtual Machine) (binary compatible) and there in lies it's strength - it's great for developing cross-platform apps
C/C++ = Platform specific = Must Compile specifically for each platform (different binary file for each) and you sometimes (read: ALWAYS) run into things that don't carry over crossplatform (aka calling anything in winapi will obviously make your project unbuildable on a unix box)

Awww... yeh your right omg... just leave me alone...

... I feel like crawling back in my hole. This whole project has made me repeatedly feel like the biggest dumbass on the planet. I think I stopped getting better and am not getting worse. Also the guy wants me to build later versions of the program and eventually make an A.I.! I'm just gonna have to tell him straight that that's impossible, and if he wants to make an A.I. he's gonna have to do it himself...

The difference between Java and C++ is that one is a cup of coffee and the other is just a B- really! So see they are two distinct things! gah?! Aight? I'm out of it ... -______-

Actually the "B" langauge came before "C" - just not as popular

hahah

OOPS! I'm a Moron.B1ackAnge1 beat me to it and said it much better than I could've.
