1. Why doesnt writeChars(String) work the way its supposed to?    forums.oracle.com

I am having trouble writing to a random access file using writeChars(string) function. The issue is that it puts way too many non-printable characters after each character.

3. String Tokenizing Question    forums.oracle.com

What's your point? That both will work? They might, but String.split(",") is the cleanest solution. It doesn't require keeping track of whether it last saw a token or delimiter. Less code, and more natural of an expression. Do you just like to make things more complicated just to you can say you wrote more lines of code?

4. doubt on strings    forums.oracle.com

But isn't strings a special case? Because of the constant string pool? As long as you dont create a new String with new String(); but only String = "...", won't both == and equals yield the same result? That's true. More specifically, all String literals are interned, but you can also intern other Strings. The golden rule is: always use equals. ...

I too, am really confused with your question.

Your code is hard to follow because of your top secerete object, method, and variable names. JJ

21. Scrolling String - Change in Speed    forums.oracle.com

I'm confused. Why are you using threads when all you have is one thread controlling all 5 scrolling Strings? I thought your thread class would only control one String. Then in your main program create 5 threads each controlling one String. Doing it that way would certainly tidy up your code by getting rid of a lot of if statements.

Your problem isn't leaping out at me. I'd suggest breaking that if() down and adding some print statements. Assign the previous and next characters to variables, not just the current one.

This is Java 101. You need to start here: [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/index.html] == compares two references to see if they point to the exact same object. Since the new operator by definition creates a new Object, s1 and s2 necessarily must point to different objects. So == must return false. That's why you shouldn't use the new operator to create Strings unless you ...
