Programming Exercise Construction Steps
Standalone applications are declining; on the other hand, web applications are flourishing.
Take the suggested steps in the following slides to construct an Internet-enabled Java application.
These steps and software are not definite nor unique, and you may take other approaches:
- Examine the exercise specifications very carefully.
- Create web pages using HTML and CSS.
- The web pages call the server-side Perl scripts by using CGI.
- The Perl scripts call the Java programs, which send the results in HTML back to the browser (the Perl scripts may do this too).
- Test the exercise thoroughly.
- Examining the Exercise Specifications Very Carefully
The specifications have to be followed precisely even though the developers may not agree with them.
