Java Java Data Structures - Retired Getting There Packages

Posted by Agapito Cruz

Workspaces not accepting certain letters.

After launching Workspaces from the 2nd video in the Java data structures video, I followed along and created the package structure and files, but when I tried to use the console to run the code, some of the letters wouldn't show up or did wierd things: lowercase l - doesn't show up, and lowercase r - clears the console window, for instance. Anyone else experience this and/or know how to fix it?

And yes, I did check that it wasn't my keyboard.

Any help would be appreciated.

That sounds very unusual. It sounds like something might be wrong with either the keyboard, or the drivers on your computer. It seems like the ctrl key is being interpreted as pressed when it is not. Have you tried restarting your browser and computer? Have you attempted using another browser to see if that is the case?

Hello Jim,

I closed that tab in Chrome and started Workspace up again. Everything seems to be working now. Not sure what was happening..
