What is the good website to see sample programs in Java?

Hi ,
I am new to java at programming level. I know the basic theoritical concepts well but want to know whether there is any good website which has good sample programs including projects and assignment( solutions-nice to have)?

Hello and welcome to JavaRanch,

I'm not sure of any site that has large sample programs. But some suggestions are:

exampledepot.com (formerly javaalmanac.com) has small sample code snippets

The Java Tutorial has some good (small) sample applications.

Again, I am not aware of any sites that have large sample applications. Perhaps others here at the ranch are. The next best thing would be to go download some open source projects. The various Apache Commons (Formerly Apache Jakarta Commons) projects are typically of good quality. And there are some small to mid sized projects you could download. (You'll obviously want to download the zip files that contain the source files.)

A Google search for Sample Java Projects found a CS Professor's (Vibha Sazawal) site with a banking application (http://www.cs.umd.edu/~vibha/money.html. It contains a link to a PDF file discussing some of the design decisions. That might be helpful. There were many others in the Google results.

Oh yeah... almost forgot... the Cattle Drive section here at JavaRanch has some projects.
