also make sure your ISP actually allows you to host a server on your connection. Many apparently do not (mine does, if they didn't they'd be looking rather silly as they provide me with server to server mail delivery among other things). Do make sure you have everything properly secured …

tell your boss you lied on your job interview and you don't actually have the skills he thinks you have. He'll do what is best for the company, which will probably be to kick you out of the building with maybe a lawsuit to recover damages from you. That's what …

Java isn't the hardest language to master by far. In fact the core language is quite easy. If you want hard, think C or Assembler. Programming any language though is like playing the guitar. It's easy to learn for most people, but very hard to learn well.

installing Tomcat can be (if you don't need anythin fancy, and you don't for learning) as simple as unzipping the distribution archive somewhere (whereever you like).

There's nothing inherently illegal about systems to read and write swipecards. Many companies use them for all kinds of purposes, from customer reward programs to security access clearance. The systems to read and write them are readily available on the open market.

You don't deploy the stubs to the application server, it generates them as needed. You're getting errors because the stubs you're supplying don't match those that are generated on the fly. The problem here is most likely a classloader issue.

racism is rampant in every country on this planet. It is fed by one group being given preferential treatment over another (or wanting to dominate the other). In the UK (and indeed in most of Europe) "minorities" are given preferential treatment everywhere, and are resented for that. In Zimbadwe minorities …

And split your code into several classes. The signal processing code is completely independent from the user interface and should not be a part of the user interface code. Check Sun's website for the Java code conventions to learn how to properly name classes, methods, and variables (as well as …

Yes, you will need networking code and thus sockets (or RMI, but that's built on top of sockets). You'll also need multithreading, and some user interface technology (most likely Swing). Learn each separately, then try combining them. The code required is non-trivial, best get a good book on Java network …

globals are evil. They reek of design errors. But if you insist on using them, put them in a header file you #include in everything.

It's also not at all urgent. Maybe in a decade or so someone we may be able to schedule someone to look at it, our calendar is filled with more urgent things to do (like reading nice books, watching movies, and talking to the dog) until then.

that's the only possible reason I see. A major flaw is also the use of what seems to be a global variable, isbn should really be a parameter to the method and be checked for length and nullness as well.

Starting with VB will only teach poor practice, don't do it. Java is a better option, but will take you as long to master as does C++. C# seems to be a slightly smaller language to learn. What language you start with hardly matters as long as it's a good …

The actual language matters less than that you get the best possible training. A LOT (probably the majority) of people starting out get terrible training and either give up or turn into a liability for future colleagues.

domain squatting and domain hijacking are despicable and often criminal activities. Anyone involved in them should (and often is) sued to hell and back and ordered to hand over the good while paying compensation to the people they tried to defraud.

that might be easier to program, but it's not a desirable solution. If the file gets larger it will inevitably be a LOT slower than modifying the existing file. It could also easily lead to out of memory errors.

XSLT is the tool for the job, you just need to write an XSLT stylesheet to perform the transformation you want, and away you go. How you write that XSLT is the tricky part, books have been written about it. It's a complex programming language in its own right.

".i may be not become a good programmer,i want to be one." Wrong attitude. Why should we help someone becoming a bad programmer? There are more than enough bad programmers already... As to examples of programs using sorting algorithms, just look around you. You find sorted lists of stuff everywhere.

hardly urgent. In fact there's no urgency at all. You're effectively saying that you're more important than anyone or anything else, including the work that pays my rent and dinner. That's extremely rude, and a blatant lie.

You can run your own DNS server which should give you the means to call the machines on your own network whatever you want. But those names will NOT be visible by anyone outside that network.

if you don't get a response, that doesn't mean it isn't being read and acted upon. PMs like that will likely be read and acted upon, but you won't get a response telling you so. PMs asking for personal help or other favours will however be discarded.

Correct. Anything that says "in 21 days", "in 24 hours", or similar things in the title (and most books saying "mastering") are to be avoided like the plague. They "teach" poor practice, incomplete skills, and no long term retention, leaving the reader just dangerous enough to royally mess up a …

Tuition in Germany isn't free, certainly not for foreigners.
