So, will those applications run uneventfully with screen readers or will one have to fiddle about with Java add-ons to permit us to read the output?

Based on my research, which seeks to value objectivity overloyalty, I recommend the Scala programming language to anyone who already has a programming background and is looking to learn a solid, future-oriented yet practical language. It combines much of the best features of previous languages, innovates further, and tries to avoid mistakes of the past. It targets the advanced, cross-platform Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which has a vast ecosystem of 3rd party support that can be tapped by other languages besides Java. Scala compiles to the same byte code, with a better language that learns from dynamic and functional languages.I think Scala is not yet widely enough adopted and strong enough in third party library support to recommend if you want or need to do rapid application development. If not in a pressing situation to produce apps, however, I suggest learning Scala,http://scala-lang.org Jamal On 8/25/2010 9:12 PM, Alex Midence wrote:Thanks. I have a check list of languages I want to learn and Python is right after c++. I may step away from c++ for a week or so just to see if something might not click into place while my brain isn't as immediately engaged. This technique has worked before with the guitar I wonder if it'll work with this skill too. Also been thinking about Java. It's supposed to be the number 1 language to learn right now. Very sought after and all that. Enjoy the tutorials, Alex M On 8/25/10, Alex Hall<mehgcap@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Thanks! This should help a lot with a project I am working on. BTW, if cpp gets to be too much, I still recommend Python...

Takes you step by step in creating gui applications in a few languages using these libraries. Lots and lots of information. Downright daunting, if you ask me. Here is the link: http://zetcode.com/ Really makes me wonder why on earth I'm bothering with c++ the way I am since I will be creating console applications till doomsday apparently. Feel compelled to stay the course though, now I've come this far. About to learn the ins and outs of classes once I get arrays and pointers down.
