Why MYCPLUS: Trusted by Java developers and students since 2004 — every tutorial includes working source code you can compile and run immediately, with clear explanations designed for real-world Java programming skills.
This is a Java class that uses some trigonometry and vector mathematics in its implementation. An object of type MovingBall holds data about a “ball” that has a color, radius, position, speed, and direction. The ball is restricted to moving around inside a rectangle in the xy-plane. The ball can draw itself in a graphics context and will move when it is told to move.

The following Java program shows the Zodiac sign corresponding to a given date. This little program can be used to find your Zodiac sign if you input your date of birth.
The Blackjack game written in Java provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for players to enjoy a simplified version of the classic card game. Upon starting the game, players are dealt an initial set of two cards each, and the goal is to build a hand with a total value as close to 21 as possible without exceeding it. The game features a deck of standard playing cards, including numbered cards, face cards (King, Queen, Jack), and Aces, each contributing their respective values to the hand.
Double buffering is a technique used in graphical applications, including Swing-based Java applications, to reduce flickering and improve the overall visual quality of animations or dynamic updates on the screen.
This is a Java source code for a simple graphical application that demonstrates how to use various types of borders in Swing, a Java GUI toolkit. The program defines a class BorderDemo that extends JApplet, a Swing component used for embedding a Java application in a web page or other container.
The DynamicArrayOfInt class is a simple implementation of a dynamic array in Java. A dynamic array is a resizable array that can grow or shrink in size as needed. This class provides methods to manipulate and interact with this dynamic array of integers. In the constructor, initially the data array has a size of 1 and grows as necessary.
This Java Code supports two-way chatting between users. It implements a client for the ConnectionBroker server, which can set up a relayed connection between a pair of such clients. There are really two functions: The user can register with the server as a client who is willing to accept a connection, or the user can make a connection with one of the clients who is waiting on the server. The code retrieves and displays a list of waiting clients when it starts. There is a Refresh button that the user can click to refresh this list (since the list of waiting clients can change from time to time).
