Yes please :), can we have more of these nuggets?

This was very useful to know, as I am making a String intensive application. A little quiz on the end would have been even better.

Agreed that this little nugget is nice. What would be great is to have it in a workspace so we could play with it.

It's a tool to enable people to write their own text adventures like the old infocom ones.

I agree, this is exactly the kind of problem I might run into and spend hours trying to understand on forums, and it was addressed very succinctly here.

I find myself getting impatient with with Craig when he moves so fast and then I realize I have him set to 1.5x speed. Even at 1x speed he is quick, but this was a great little pearl and would love to see more incorporated between lesson modules.

Thanks, Donnie

3 years later. TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE Does it use the same pool? TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE Don't wanna look like a fool!

For real, I want more. I prefer videos over that cache of Java books I picked up on humble bundle.
