How to Make a Java Game With NetBeansIn Feburary 2016 21,
In Feburary 2016 21,
Download and install the appropriate version of NetBeans for your system. If you are running 64-bit or 32-bit Windows, there are specific versions of the software for both of these operating systems. You will be prompted to set some defaults of the tool. It is best to accept the default values for all of the fields, since not doing so can lead to you being unable to compile your game from within the tool.
Launch NetBeans, then select 'New Java Project' from the file menu. You will be asked to select where you want to save your project. NetBeans projects can be saved anywhere on your hard drive or on a remote network drive. Give it a name that is both descriptive yet simple enough to remember.
Develop or purchase any art assets that you are going to need for your game. Popular illustration tools include Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and the free and open source Inkscape. When developing models for the player characters and any other characters that will be utilized in the game, save them as PNGs, since PNGs have transparent backgrounds by default.
Click on the Java file that NetBeans created for you when you created the project. NetBeans has already generated some code for you, including a main method; in Java, the compiler begins running your code starting with the main method. Since there are so many different types of games that can be written in Java, it is impossible to offer any specific code here, but there is one thing that every game is going to have: an update method. The update method checks what changes have been made in the game world periodically.
Hit F5 to compile your project. Any errors that are found in your game will be displayed in the debugging window at the bottom of your screen. These errors will need to be fixed before you can successfully compile your project.

Develop or purchase any art assets that you are going to need for your game. Popular illustration tools include Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and the free and open source Inkscape. When developing models for the player characters and any other characters that will be utilized in the game, save them as PNGs, since PNGs have transparent backgrounds by default.
Click on the Java file that NetBeans created for you when you created the project. NetBeans has already generated some code for you, including a main method; in Java, the compiler begins running your code starting with the main method. Since there are so many different types of games that can be written in Java, it is impossible to offer any specific code here, but there is one thing that every game is going to have: an update method. The update method checks what changes have been made in the game world periodically.
Hit F5 to compile your project. Any errors that are found in your game will be displayed in the debugging window at the bottom of your screen. These errors will need to be fixed before you can successfully compile your project.

SQL Scripting TutorialIn Feburary 2016 20,
In Feburary 2016 20,
Open up the database program of your choice. This could be Microsoft Access, SQL Server, or Oracle. Create a few sample fields, such as First Name, Last Name, Address, City, State, and Zip. Then add a few sample records to test on.
Write your first query by typing out 'SELECT
FROM table_name' where table_name is the name of the table you created. This example returns every value from every field in the table within your database (the
indicates all). You can also say 'SELECT field_name FROM table_name' to select only the field_name field from your table.
Add to your last statement with the WHERE clause. The WHERE clause specifies which fields you want to return based on a certain value. 'SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE last_name = 'Morgan' ' will search for 'Morgan' in the last_name field and returns all records from the table in which the person's last name is Morgan. Note that if you are searching for a string (letters or words), you will need single quotes around the name. If you are searching for a number, you don't need the quotes.
Add to your last statement once again by using the ORDER BY clause. 'SELECT
FROM table_name ORDER BY last_name' will order your recordset by the person's last name in alphabetical order. You can also do 'SELECT
FROM table_name ORDER BY age' and it will order by the person's age (add DESC after the field name you wish to order by to list the names in descending order).
Create a new query by typing the INSERT INTO statement. The INSERT INTO statement inserts a new row into the table that you specify. 'INSERT INTO table_name VALUES ('Courtney','Morgan',14)' will add the first name of Courtney, the last name of Morgan, and the age of 14 into your table. Likewise, if you want to delete someone from your table, you will use the DELETE statement. 'DELETE FROM table_name WHERE last_name = 'Morgan' AND first_name = 'Courtney' ' will delete Courtney Morgan from your table.
Create another new query. Use the UPDATE statement. This will update a record instead of adding or deleting one. 'UPDATE table_name SET address = '555 Hollywood Blvd', city = 'Los Angeles' WHERE last_name = 'Morgan' AND first_name = 'Courtney' ' will update Courtney Morgan's address to 555 Hollywood Blvd and her city to Los Angeles.

How to Use the SUM Function in MySQLIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Use the SUM aggregate function. SUM will add all of the selected columns together.
Notice how, in this example, you'll sum all of the negative balances to calculate the total amount owed to you by your customers. The result returns in a column called SUM(balance). Example:
SELECT SUM(balance) FROM customers WHERE balance
Use the AVG Function in MySQL
Use the AVG aggregate function. This aggregate is similar to SUM. However, instead of adding the columns, it adds them and then divides by the total number of columns, giving you an average of the column values.
Use AVG in much the same way SUM is used. Here, the example calculates the average amount of money owed by customers. Results return in a column called AVG(balance). Example:
SELECT AVG(balance) FROM customers WHERE balance
Use the COUNT Function in MySQL
Use the COUNT aggregate function. This function is slightly different than SUM or AVG. It returns the number of rows returned, which can be useful in a number of situations--for example, to see the number of customers who owe money.
See how this example counts the customers who owe money and returns the result in a column called COUNT(
). Example:
SELECT COUNT(
) FROM customers WHERE balance
Use the DISTINCT COUNT Function in MySQL
Use the DISTINCT COUNT aggregate function. The function can be used to return the number of distinct rows, meaning those rows with differing values. Theoretically, you might have a lot of customers with the same phone number. To get the number of households your customers live in, you can use this type of query.
Use the following example to return the number of customers with distinct phone numbers. Customers with the same phone number will not be counted. The results are returned in a column called COUNT(DISTINCT ph_number). Example:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT ph_number) FROM customers;

How to Create a Catalog in DreamweaverIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Open Dreamweaver and on the 'File' menu choose the 'New' command. Dreamweaver will present you with a dialogue box that will ask for server and file setup information. You will need to choose the folder where you want to save the files you create in Dreamweaver as well as the location of the server where the files will be uploaded. The server information you need is available from your web host. Once this information is complete, Dreamweaver presents you with a template dialogue box.
Select a template option from the template dialogue box. Dreamweaver offers several catalog templates to choose from. Clicking on any of the templates will bring it up for you to examine. Look at all of them and determine which one fits your needs. If none of them is quite what you need, choose the closest and modify it. You can easily delete sections of the template or add sections of the template by using the Modify menu.
Replace the Dreamweaver template text with your own text. This will be information about your products, including product descriptions and pricing.
Add pictures of your products to your catalog by using the Insert menu. Dreamweaver allows you to set the display size of the graphic and easily create links to full-size versions.
Upload your catalog to your web host using Dreamweaver's built-in FTP (File Transfer Protocol) feature. Your web catalog will dispplay on your website just as you created it.
