Four-letter word Joined: 2 Jan, 2006 Posts: 1,180 Thanked: 6 times Dream Kudos: 100 Expert In: Java My Contributions	The Sun Java Tutorial The Sun Java Tutorial "Really Big Index" The Java 6 API (If you've ever been told you to "RTFM", this is what they meant ) Google DIC Forum Search Your text book (yes you are expected to read it)! If you can't find the answer using any of these resources, that's when you post your question in the Java Forum. Make sure to post what you have tried so far and how it's failing. Asking questions like, "How do I print a String?" or "How to I express the 'greater than' relation?" both show that you have put no effort into the problem because they are so readily available by even the most cursory of searches. Asking how to do anything without explaining what you have tried so far also shows no effort. Just try. You'll be surprised at how good it feels to do it for yourself.

Hope you don't mind I re-worded the 2nd line of the title a little Not at all. Looks good. I'm might have been a little liberal with the 90% figure, but I'm certain that 90% or more of Java questions can be answered by these resources. But since I have no data to back that claim, I'm going by anecdotal evidence and experience. This post has been edited by Programmist: 30 Aug, 2007 - 09:58 AM
