Is there a way to compile and run single .java files from the terminal? I have heard this is possible. Or if that is not possible does anyone know another way to compile and run java in OS 10.1.
Thanks

Here is the way to do this:

1. Navigate to the directory where your .java file is located
2. Type "javac <filename>"
3. To run the program, type "java <filename without extension (.java)>"
