I'm interested in taking your course this semester, but I
noticed you require familiarity with a programming language. How
familiar do I have to be? I know Maple and Java, but my knowledge of
Java is very limited.

Predrag's answer:
- It is up to you what you use, as long as you can program - most people
in the past wrote in fortran, c, basic, matlab, maple, mathematica, java,
as you can see
on ChaosBook/extras
collection of programs.
It would be cute to contribute some
java applets.
Learning how to do numerical
work is a necessary skill no matter what you do later, as long as you do not turn into a lawyer.
