			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The team has begun developing new features to the memory program.  By the end of this month, we should see major improvements to the code.  </p>
<p>On a side note, one of our software designers was forced to retire early to focus more on his academics; leaving only one software designer left doing all of the documents. Richard has decided to dedicate some of his time as a part-time designer to confiscate some of the lost progress. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I find it very disturbing that many students in the computer science department do not know that you cannot use primitive data types on collection classes such as Sets, Lists, and Maps.</p>
<p>What do I mean by that?  You cannot do this:</p>
<blockquote><p>TreeSet&lt;int&gt; mySet = new TreeSet&lt;int&gt;();</p></blockquote>
<p>Go ahead, type this in your editor; it will not compile.  You cannot use an int as well as a char, double, float, etc.</p>
<p>What can you use instead?  Use a wrapper class.</p>
<p>You can guys can research wrapper classes on your own.  The point is that you use wrapper classes instead of the primitive data types.</p>
<p>For example, the wrapper class for int is Integer.</p>
<blockquote><p>TreeSet &lt;Integer&gt;mySet = new TreeSet&lt;Integer&gt;();</p></blockquote>
<p>That will compile.</p>
<p>There are other wrapper classes for each primitive data type.  So go ahead and explore them when you have the chance.</p>
