Need Help With some Java

[Mez]

I have an assignment , to creat a game, such as battleship
now i am fairly new to java, and i am not using swing or applets yet, does anyone know how to do three things,
first is to play a sound when a certain thing is done
second to play a sound looped for the entire time the program runs
third is to delay the play of the computer, the game is battleship and right now, right after you play the computer plays , kinda weird feeling

any help would be grateful
