He's stuck comma's in there too instead of full stops.

You should also use:

in.equals("Reporting in");

for the boolean equality.

Unless of course it was C# which is possible & I should know as I done cleva stuff at uni don't you know.

Wow, we have lots of talented people here

I too am interested in programming, however, I'm still in the process of learning, just finished college, did software development, we did not do much coding at all, we mostly did program design i.e. flow charts, JSD etc. and business solutions.

We only did a bit of Java and quite a lot of VB. Wish I was as talented as some of you guys here. Oh well, I'll get learning again soon (university is about to start )

Cross posting this in GD for info only - mainly as we had a great response from GD and hoping we might have few more that want to get involved

====== General Update ========

Concepts are being suggested here: http://www.zorev.com/forumdisplay.php?f=4

Discussions on languages are being discussed here: http://www.zorev.com/showthread.php?t=14

A poll of language knowledge is here: http://www.zorev.com/showthread.php?t=16

The concepts that seem viable will be voted for here either on OCUK or over that the forums.

Those that want to get involved please do by registering over at the forums (we've had a great turnout so far).

The next meeting is on IRC on Tuesday at 8:30PM.

(the OCUK channel - I'll repost details of how to get on it again on Monday)


Hopefully in Tuesday's meeting we will to getting a distribution list / mailing list setup. Also a quick round up of the current concepts list. Then a "informed" discussion about programming language & engine choice - as we *should* have all looked into them by now (if not this will be left for a week). We also need to address what training options we have for helping people getting to grips with what ever we choose as our primary language (do we give links or do we do instruction ourselves etc..)

Cheers, progressing really well, thanks for to all those that've helped out thus far/.

Last shout for anyone in GD interested in learning the basics of programming - we'll be having "programming fest" on Sunday @ 2 on our IRC channel we'd love to have as many of you there was possible - anyone is welcome if you don't know your int's from your strings, no worries, come along and learn something new http://www.zorev.com/showthread.php?p=564#post564

For those interested we're going to flesh out the basics of graphics in Java (with the goal of every one getting a basic shape to move around a window).
