I am starting to learn program so i started with stanfords cs106a course on itunes U. I cannot get karel the robot to run on correctly. I have eclipse luna installed and have Java jdk 8 installed. when i try to run an assigments solution all i get is a blank white screen that opens in a new window. I have tried several different run configs. i am stuck and go go any further with my practice and studying because i cant do the assigments. if anyone has knowledge of my problem and can help me out in anyway it will be much appreciated. i am new to this forum and new to learning to code, i hope i can get this sorted i dont want to get discouraged from the entire thing because i cant get the learning tools to not work properly.

Start by learning to create a program that does run. Pick a simple one
from http://www.vogella.de/tutorials (Eclipse).

After you've done that, you'll have the confidence and understanding to
answer your question. As it is, you've not given anything like enough
information to answer it. For all we know, it's merely a "programming"
(which I'm pretty sure it is) and not an Eclipse issue. In that case,
your resort will be a) fellow students, b) lab assistants, c) your
professor or d) sites like javaranch.com and stackoverflow.com.

Hope this helps.

Let me give more info. I have eclipse(Luna) running on windows 7 64 bit. I have the current version of Java. I downloaded all this from the links provided by Stanford cs106a website. I Create a new project and import the assignments that have karel the robot problems to be solved. After I write the correct code to solve the assignment and I run the program it compiles and when it opens the new window it is a blank white window. I was thinking that maybe someone on this sight has experience getting the teaching tool karel the robot running on windows. I don't know what information beyond this I need to provide. If anyone is familiar with stanfords cs106a and karel the robot please share any tips or guides you have to troubleshoot the issue I am having. Thank you.

That's exactly what you won't find. Google is your friend. You might
even try stackoverflow.com. I guarantee, you won't find an answer here.
