-- Posted by Echo one at 10:32 am on July 7, 2008 I've decided to start trying to learn Java again. I know a few soft typed programming languages and am familiar with the basics of java (declaring variables etc). The problem is, I'm writing a simple math script using a switch, just to test out classes and calling things. I tried to call system.out.print(); and the environment (netbeans 6.1) says the package system doesn't exist. Same thing with Math. How do I include these two packages? Is this just something wierd with Netbeans? -- Posted by amanitta at 10:34 am on July 7, 2008 i sould learn it this summer bcs in 2010..i have  a national exam ! we have java..i need to learn it asap -- Posted by Echo one at 1:14 pm on July 7, 2008 can anyone tell me how to include packages? I seriously can't do anything without a basic print function. It's kinda annoying -- Posted by Squiddles at 12:07 pm on July 9, 2008 I am not familiar with net beans, but the package java.lang (which contains System and Math) should be imported automatically into all java programs. Try adding Code: import java.lang.*; If that doesn't work, it may be that Java isn't properly installed.
