How do I run my codes in the workspace?

I do not understand how to run the codes in workspace. I have used eclipse before and there usually is a run program button.

In the workspaces provided you still have to compile and run them as if using the terminal or shell. type javac <the name of your file.java> to compile and then run them by typing java <the name of your file>

Or you can use this short cut in your console: clear && javac <filename.java> && java <filename>. This will work as long as there are no errors in your code.
