Objectives

We would like to :

Write our first program.

Notes

I want to write a program that tells a joke.
This will be restricted somewhat as we are just starting out.
Algorithm/Planning:
- ```
 Print the question
 Print three blank lines
 Print the punch line
```
- The joke: (from https://www.theserverside.com/) Why do all submarines use Linux? Because you can't open Windows under water!

The standard outline

class BadJoke {
   public static void main() {
      
   }
}

The body

These will just be println statements

System.out.println("Why do all submarines use Linx?");
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Because you can't open Windows under water!");

Some comments
- At the top, let's add a block comment with identifying information
- ```
/*
   Program 1: Tell a joke.
   Programmer: Dan Bennett
   
   The purpose of this program is to amuse the user by telling a joke.
*/ 
```
- In the program let's add a few comments to tell a reader what is happening.

class BadJoke {
   public static void main() {
      // tell the joke
      System.out.println("Why do all submarines use Linx?");

      // give the user a chance to think.
      System.out.println();

      // Tell the punch line
      System.out.println("Because you can't open Windows under water!");
   }
