Hi All,

I am a new beginner in Java who gave myself an exercise which briefly
requires that I produce an applet which generates positive integers
(1,2,3,..) and displays each one, together with a suitable message, i.e.
"The number is : 2", at two-second intervals. Can anyone point out why my
program below doesn't produce the expected results when run please ?


/*an applet which generates positive integers (1,2,3...)and displays each
one, together

import java.awt.*;

import java.awt.Font;

import java.awt.Color;

import java.awt.Graphics;


public class Integers extends java.applet.Applet
{


 Font f = new Font ("Courier",Font.BOLD,24);

 int num, value; // declare variables


 public void init()
 {

  Font f = new Font("Courier",Font.BOLD,24);
 }

 public void run()
 {

  while (true)
  {
   for (num = 1; num >= 1; num = num++)

   {
    value = num;
    repaint();
    try {Thread.sleep(1000);}
    catch (InterruptedException e){}

   }
  }
 }

 public void update(Graphics g)
 {
  paint(g);
 }

 public void paint (Graphics g)
 {
  g.setFont (f);
  g.setColor(Color.red);
  g.drawString("The number is : " + value, 10, 20);
 }


}



Thanks
