can't wait for the next part, done C# for my first year of uni.
Took me a while to realise why I couldn't compile my code straight from my IDE, this video saved me a lot of brain-ache, thanks :)

I've downloaded the development kit but now I can't find the file in my java folder. It isn't there. I downloaded a jre and that shows up but jdk doesn't. what does that mean?

You can go to Control Panel, and then System. It will tell you what processor architecture you have. Also, downloading and installing Java will not harm anything on your computer.
