I had planned to learn Java anyway. A netizen once told me that the languages every engineer needs to know are C++ and Java. I&rsquo;ve dabbled a little in C++ and can write small programs, but I had never touched Java at all. When my teacher asked whether I wanted to take classes at Taipei Business College, I went right away, very happy about it.</p> <p>I originally thought Java wasn&rsquo;t very useful. I wanted to learn it because it&rsquo;s a required skill for engineers, and also because of its cross-platform nature: I could easily write Java programs for desktop and even mobile phones. Android&rsquo;s basics are also built on Java. But after a few classes, I started to like Java. It gave me the same drive I had when I first learned a programming language. I started staying up until midnight with a book in my hands&hellip; It&rsquo;s the same feeling I had back when I learned VB.NET!!</p>
