Java Programming Questions?
I'm using a Mac OS X 10.6.8
*******
I'm following this site on how to learn Java
This page shows what the code looks like that I've entered into TextWrangler:
http://www.informit.com/library/content.aspx?b=STY...
I've saved it as Saluton.java and put it on my desktop.
When I get to this page I get stuck on compiling the program for use:
http://www.informit.com/library/content.aspx?b=STY...
It isn't really Mac friendly it seems and I use Terminal to enter: javac Saluton.java
(the whole line is: ryan-arthers-macbook-pro-2:~ ryan1428elm$ javac Saluton.java)
The error message is:
javac: file not found: Saluton.java
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
use -help for a list of possible options
It says entering this command will create another file named Saluton.class which will make it run...
Another thing, since this site isn't too Mac friendly, how do I run a java program exactly?...
I downloaded the JDK for it (was called SDK on this site for other OS's) and when I open the Saluton.java program it opens up in AppleScriptEditor. Is this program any good? It looks like I could just use this instead of TextWrangler because you can run it and it has a "Compile" button.
I'm confused... earlier in that program I pressed run and it said "Syntax Error: A identifying can't go after this property." So to move forward, I assumed it was because on this site I'm following, I wouldn't be able to run it without doing the whole terminal thing, creating a Saluton.class file. But I can't even get that to work! What am I doing wrong?

1 AnswerCorporations9 years agoTime Value of Money Calculator Problem?
'm being asked what the maximum price I would be willing to pay to acquire a car...
I'm using a TVC (Time Value Calculator) on an itouch... idk if it's accurate or not.
So here's the deal: annual after tax benefit, "CF", associated w/ purchase of the car is: 1073
"FV", the amount I can sell the car at the end of ownership is: 4000
The amount of years intended to own the car, "n" is: 5
The minimum after-tax required rate of return, "i", that I need to remove from my savings account is: 5%
With this information I plug this into the TVM Calculator:
# of payments: 5
Percent: 5
Present Value: 0 (What I'm solving for according to my teacher)
Deposit: 1073
Future value: 4000
PV answer I get is: -1380.8858
If i make the payment negative, like my teacher did in class (at least this is how I was following it), the PV answer I get is: 9216.2824
Neither answer is acceptable.
I don't know how to figure out what the maximum price I'd be willing to pay for the car.
I know that the correct answer is: 7779.63, but I don't know why!
1 AnswerOther - Business & Finance9 years agoA few questions about Excel Formulas!?
Which formulas, if any, are to be used for these? And how do I use them properly?
1.In C5:C11, calculate the sales tax paid for each car. Use the tax rate in B17. This must be an absolute address .
2.In D5:D11, calculate the commission paid for each car. Use the commission rate in B18. This must be an absolute address.
3.In E5:E11, calculate the total price by adding the price, the sales tax and the commission.
Also, what is an absolute address? why is it used (briefly)? and how do I use it?
Absolute vs. Relative Address? (how to use relative?)
And this one other direction:
1.Are the total sales for each make of car on February 21 (Column E) greater than the previous day’s sales on February 20 (Column F)? Use the IF function to compare the cells with the two days total prices. Your answers go in G4:G11. The answer for each make of car is Yes or No.
How do I use the IF function and complete this?
1.Beginning at Row 25 use the payment function to determine a monthly car payment.
How to use the payment function? the FV function?

3 AnswersCell Phones & Plans9 years agoIf my girlfriend got tested for STD's after having sex with me, does that mean I have none?
The first girl I slept with was a virgin.
the second had sex with one other person who also was a virgin. (I was her second time)
the 3rd girl was a virgin.
I got a ******* from one since.
Then I had sex with one other girl who was definitely not a virgin but said she was tested for std's ( I used a condom anyway).
NOW I have a girlfriend who was tested for STD's AFTER we had sex.
Does that mean that I have no STD's?
1 AnswerSTDs1 decade agoCan skin cysts (such as on your back/neck) cause cancer?
I have one on my back that has been there forever as well as a new one on my neck.
The one on my neck looks the same as the one on my back but my mom is freakin out as was I but after I read this short article on skin cysts and I feel better:
http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/...
It says skin cysts are noncancerous. it's webmd, but are they missing something? is this true?!!!?!!!
2 AnswersCancer1 decade agoIf I had a cyst that was cancerous, how long would it be before I found out if I didn't get it checked?
My mom's made me nervous all of a sudden, staring wide-eyed at my small neck cyst.
She insists I get it checked out and for some reason I feel afraid if I don't.
I heard cysts are rarely cancerous, and I've had one on my back for quite a while (months and months)
This one on my neck is quite new. It hasn't been hot really, but I was afraid it came about because of the sun, which doesn't seem likely after looking at skin cancer pictures and reading about it.
It's just a tiny, ordinary cyst, I think, but if it WERE cancerous... would I feel any different by now? how long would it take? What would I feel?
I need to know in the meantime before I get it checked out. :\
