Introduction

Just an idea I got from another post on this site, and remade it myself. Suggestions? Comments? Thanks!

Grab the Code

Java Snippet:  Magic 8 Ball
Posted on Jul 2, 2009 10:01 am
Code:

            System.out.print("Your question was not stated as a yes or no.\n");
            System.out.print("Try again...\n");
            System.out.print("                         ...but don't be stuipid this time....\n");

Instead of printing with a \n at the end why not just do println?

Not sure... I only just learned to use println, and this was written before! I use it all the time now.
