Default Double Jeopardy!

Double Jeopardy! Twice as dangerous as normal Jeopardy...

This game is simple. Like Jeopary, provide the question to the persons answer or clue, then provide another clue for the person below you..ASSUME YOUR ANSWER IS CORRECT, if not, im sure it will be mentioned, and you would have stumped someone so congrats! Remember ANSWER then PROVIDE. It makes this game easier. If you dont know the answer, then you dont have to post! feel free to provide a category for your clue if you wish

--------------------------------------

answer: System.out.println is a simple command in this programming language.

Answer: A group of Tuscan painters formed out of the Risorgimento nationalist movement of the nineteenth century. Their name was derived from an Italian term macchia that can be defined either as a ‘patch’ or ‘blotch’ of colour, or, as an unfinished ‘sketch‘.

edit: I was nice and provided the italian term
