On the tablet itself you can develop with AIDE, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aide.ui&hl=en[^] Not knowing how to program in Java at all, I did some googling and nosed around the files crated by the hello world project and was able to make the tablet vibrate after a short bit. It also hooks into dropbox.

Short Version: Accepting change and trying to work with it broadens you abilities. Long Version: I started coding with all my variables declared at the top. The were grouped by type and then sorted alphabetically. Luckily we used brief and had macros that would sort out a highlighted section of code for us. The language required pre-declaration so there was no use arguing about where we declared our variables only that is was organized the same throughout the department. I then started developing in C++ and noticed that I had a hard time reading code where the variables were declared JIT. I didn't like it, although there wasn't anything wrong with the code, it was just different for me to work with. Finding declarations required a new process and I wasn't happy about about changing. Now several languages, programming shops, and standards later I find I can't be so ridged in my ways, change is a part of the job. Nowadays I find that I am doing both depending on the variable needs. I have noticed that JIT declaration is a little easier to refactor code, but at the same time when I have to pre-declare my variables I find that I still group them. Some habits are hard to break. And that is the crux of this whole thread. It's a habit how you lay your code out. There is no right way or wrong way. The main thing to remember is to not be candidate for the code obfuscation contest. Remember, you can take 20 lines of code and compress it down to 2 but the next time you read it you wont know what you were trying to do. :) Sorry for letting this ramble on so long.
