Never really felt VS as a slow compiler but then again I only did small time school projects. Can someone tell me around how many lines of code will VS decide to slowdown at? I'm guessing 500 lines and as for why I want to know..just curiosity.

It sort of counts? Text editor + interactive console = IDE, am I wrong?
Haven't touched IDLE in years. Does it also support just running the interpreter? I think that also makes it count.
Indeed it does.

You're better off learning JavaFX unless you explicitly want to maintain Java Swing GUIs.

Which, considering the nature of programming (half the existing code architecture will never be replaced no matter how ancient because laziness and money) means you're better off learning Java Swing.

You forgot AWT!

Oh wow, had a look at JavaFX and it looks way more awesome than any other GUI system I've seen.

I've never liked Eclipse, or any other Jave IDE I've used. I ❤ visual studio though.

Netbeans was alright. Nothing really special, but it worked and did all I needed.

It's probably just sluggish when you're on a 20 years old computer.

It's slow to start-up versus, say, a regular text editor. It also makes you go through stuff to create a blank project. I sometimes experience typing lag, where my characters don't appear until a second or so after I've typed them, or just when moving the cursor around. It's probably doing Intellisense stuff, which IMO doesn't need to take priority over text display.

Personally, I prefer to edit code in Notepad++, then compile and debug in Visual Studio later.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

I use Notepad++ if I just want to try something out. It feels wasteful to create a project and set a folder aside when I just want to monkey around with an idea I had on the spur of the moment.

So i'm in a programming team and they've set a group project questions called 3n + 1. I'll input a link at the bottom to the full problem but i'm confused as to what i'm suppose to do.

From what I can gather from my reads is that you input a number into a program with some If statements and then try to optimize the soultion. From their i'm very lost and I don't know what exactly they want me to do. So am I suppose to just make a program that inputs a number for N and then see which iteration of my ifs it'll run into?

Also how do I know if a for loop or while loop is faster? I'm still a very basic programmer and haven't much experience with optimizing programs so making it 'run faster' is out of my scope (attempted joke). All of my assignments have been under 100 lines with one reaching around 130 lines of code.

What language are you writing in, though?
In Python, you'd use the timeit module to see how fast small snippets of code run, or cProfile for a more general view at the efficiency of your stuff.

Think you could actually drop that link? Right now all we have are your statements about what you think they were trying to tell you; you never actually gave the link in your post. :P

Links or it didn't happen?

I know that if you're in C (Or probably C++) one option is to use a few clock() calls to get processor time, and you might be able to do the comparison that way.
