    Default taking sonar/frequency readings with a microphone to be able to display readout

    I have a simple code below of how to access the microphone and record and download a file. What I want to do is take this code, gain access to the microphone, and then use the microphone to pick up different frequency readings somehow. Can anyone help me? I am very new and really do not understand any tutorials I have read about FFT or anything further into JAVA audio.

    Another problem I just noticed, the posted code is not java. It looks like javascript.

    What is the difference Norm?

    --- Update ---

    Can I use javascript instead of JAVA to do this? Either way the whole process seems complicated to me

    --- Update ---

    Oh I see now it says javascript is something completely different. Well can I use JAVA to make myself an app for phones? If not, what is JAVA?
