1. Kawa is an icon on the Lab Application tool bar. Click on it to bring up the IDE (interactive development environment).
2. Make a new folder from Windows explorer for this project -- on your diskette name the folder Lab1

import java.io.*;
class Program1 {

/* Filename: Program1.java
   Author: Your name
   Date: Today's Date mm/dd/yy
   Version: 1.0
   Description: This program announces my first Java
                program experience, and signals my
                intent to continue.

  public static void main (String[] arg) {
     System.out.println("This is your name's first Java Program");
     System,out.println("but it won't be his/her last.");
  }
}

Build menu :  Compile

• You will probably have lots of errors. The window on the bottom will say:

           Double click on the line with file name
      and error number to locate the error
• Scroll up in that bottom window until you find the first line numbered error and fix it in the window with Program1.java.
• Keep repeating this step of finding and correcting errors and compiling until there are no errors
• If the compile option is not present in the build menu, you may have to build : stop run
• When you are successful, you should see the message

c:\jdk1.2.2\bin\java.exec   Program1.java
File Compiled
No Errors...

• You should now see

c:\jdk1.2.2\bin\java.exec   Program1.java
Working Directory  A:\LAB1\
This is Sally Student's first Java Program
but it won't be her last.
