How do you compile and execute your Java programs from the command prompt (cmd) in Windows? Also, how you can you write your programs just using Notepad?

We'll go over how to write a Java program in Notepad, then how you can compile and run that program directly from the command prompt (cmd) in Windows.

The video shows Windows 11, but the same process works for Windows 10 or other version of Windows.

This is a great beginner's Java video if you're learning how to execute your programs, or if you're used to using an IDE like Eclipse, and want to learn how to use the command prompt (cmd) instead.
