Running java programs on the web

StackOverflow, the website I use frequently when I have questions about the art of Software Design, recently started a new branch called Documentation1.

It is in Beta at the moment, but it seems already to have some valid content2.

Ideone

The Documentation section of StackOverflow seems to make extensive use of Ideone3, which I had never heard of before now.

From their website:
“Ideone is an online compiler and debugging tool which allows you to compile source code and execute it online in more than 60 programming languages.”
Besides the unfortunate large amount of adds surrounding your HelloWorld code, it seems to work pretty well, if you quickly want to try something in the Programming language of Your Choice.

I'm Back!

Sorry for the extended time I've been away. Truth is there is neither much to report on, and there's a noticable lack of motivation from my end, besides which I am very busy with other things in my life.

And I was on vacation.

I'm back now, and I hope to add some more articles to this blog in the coming weeks.

Regards, Mr. Bear.
