Nothing to do with comics, but I'm desperate and trying several different boards where I think there might be folks who can help me. If there is anyone here familiar with Java, I urgently need help for my programming class. My professor gave me a take home test, but three of the four parts deal with arrays, which he only briefly covered, and what he asks for on the exam, he didn
