So I am trying to start with Java (as in, trying to get the dang thing to accept code). I download all the needed things (the SDK) from Java and such, but when it gets to the point where I have to do “javac” in Command Prompt to compile the notepad file, I just get the message saying that there is no command called “javac”.
Anybody wanna share some insight?

Also I recommend using an IDE such as netbeans or eclipse. They make it much easier when starting off in java, plus when getting into advanced projects with many classes, they help greatly.
