How do I run Java code

Question

I'm comfortable with the basics of Python so I decided to play around with C++ and Java. I can't seem to run them and Google hasn't been much help. For C++ I don't want to keep running in the Code::Blocks IDE because I prefer Atom. Should I stick with Python or should I use a compiler, and if so any suggestions on how as I am new to other languages?

Answer 1

You can run java on here using code playground?

Answer 2

C++ and Java are both conpiled languages so you will need a compliler(I know Java is also technically interpreted by the JVM). However, saying both are conpiled is not always the same as saying you need A full IDE.
I would suggest looking at The New Boston's java tutorials.

Answer 3

That is fine. I am happy to help. After all once I was the one being helped

Answer 4

I know, but I am talking about bigger programs because I prefer the Atom Text Editor over Code Playground.

Answer 5

Or is there a better language to learn, I am comfortable with Python at this stage, I just don't want to dive in to the deep end

Answer 6

Thank you for the advice :D
