Using notepad....

    You think that's bad?
    In my previous university we were writing semi-simple HTML pages on PAPER even on an exam...with a different piece of paper for CSS.
    I swear to god this is true.
    Left the place after 3 months.

    Nothing wrong with learning Java in Notepad. You shouldn't use any IDE to learn a new language as it hides too much.

    It's always hilarious to see how some "programmers" break when you take their toys away.

    Yep, nothing wrong with using the simplest Editor and a commandline for the compiler to get a feeling how the stuff works. Then expand the toolchain.

    I first did Java on notepad for uni too; used command line to javac our programs too; let me not forget that we manually traversed from the CLI to java's bin folder to do so (this is before i knew of the PATH variable). Stupid as it was, i did learn java, and programming in general

    it isnt so bad to code using notepad, i did it for all three c++, c# and java, your foundation is stronger and you are not so dependent on intellisense when you do this. You do have my sympathy for having to learn java though

    I think is a good start. I've met people that think they're developing an application in (IDE here) instead of (language here).
