185 Week 14: Javadoc

Java provides a program that pretty-prints comments in your code into a dandy HTML version of your API. (The Java API is itself described in this fashion.)

Here's the best reasonably short description I've been able to find of this program, which is called javadoc. It resides in the same folder as your other Java binaries.

See if you can produce the Javadoc for one of the booksite's standard I/O library files. Plan to comment your code in this fashion in the future.

I will add some other links during class.
