Dear NEO4J documentation staff:

I'm just a java newbie.  Last year, I completed a two months Java intensive 
course, so I'm not totally uninformed.



In the NEO4J docs, I keep seeing snippets of code, but have no clue where 
they are to go. 



ie:
http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/stable/tutorials-java-embedded-setup.html 


With Maven, it would be very helpful is you would specify that the typical 
file to modify is pom.xml and where that file might be found.
Once I have the exact filename, it's a big start. Often, I can search my 
Linux hard drive, find a similar file as an example. 


Yet, on the same page, I see that for Ivy, the docs specify the file: 
ivysettings.xml. Hmm.

Even the HelloWorld example, found at:
http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/stable/tutorials-java-embedded-hello-world.html

does not have a fully working program, just snippets.


You can see some of my NEO4J and java struggles here:

I would characterize such documentation as good for people who have already 
done these tasks before. And just need a quick reminder, say on syntax.  

However, for someone like myself, just beginning to write embedded NEO4J in 
Java, this is inadequate. 


I learn best from a "simple example that works". Once I have the simple 
example, I can usually modify it, and get it to work.


Please provide more simple and complete java programs, and all the specific 
steps required to get them to work.


Thanks a lot!



BTW, on my blog, you will find that after I've solved many technical 
issues, for the reader, it's often just a case of simple copy and paste the 
solution.
