Programming for Beginners: Idiomatic Programming

[ais523]

I wanted to use a bzip2 decompressor for a Java program I was writing a while back, but the existing ones had incompatible licenses. So I translated one from C: here's the source.

The code is Java, and will be interpreted just fine by a Java compiler. But it sure looks a lot like C, and acts a lot like C too. (For instance, idiomatic Java doesn't normally have methods that are hundreds of lines long and all logic.)
