Week 12 (?): more complex builds and automating builds, part 1

Ordinarily, Java programs have many more parts than ours have had, with separate source files for whole groups of methods. Out of the experience of those who came before us comes a standard hierarchical system of organizing the many files and directories that make part of a big project. Then building and rebuilding from source code becomes more involved, and we're going to look at methods for doing that, too.
