Help... How to get processor usage and ram usage

I want to make a program that gets as a variable the processor usage and the ram usage. I'm a n00b at processing so code and a description would be nice.  Please and thank you...

Java isn't the best suited for this task, as it aims at being system/cpu agnostic. Now, it can access low level information, often by using C routines, which thus must exist for your system.
In any case, it isn't going to be simple. If you want to do a gadget monitoring such usage, I doubt Java is the best suited.

Anyway, you can have some information at How to monitor the computer’s cpu, memory, and disk usage in Java.
