How do I connect MySQL to JavaEditor?

Question

I have to programm a quiz for my last assignment in school ever. We never did this in school before and I have 3 days left. Nothing worked so far. I have JavaEditor, Xampp, which holds my database with questions, MySQL Workbench and a ConnectorJ. Idek what I need. My teacher just ignores me and this assignment is a big chunk of my final graduation grade.
Where do I write the JDBC connection? In the GUI or another class connected to it?
How do I write it?
Every tutorial I saw in the past 4 days didn't help me. I need to use JavaEditor.

Bc the teacher was sick a lot and Coronavirus, we still haven't done stuff like Arrays and Loops but I have papers for that. I'm basically supposed to know something I can't know anything about and get graded for it.

You guys are basically my last straw and if none of you can help I'll fail.

To connect to MySQL from Java, you have to use the JDBC driver from MySQL.
The MySQL JDBC is called
MySQL Connector / J.
You'll find the latest MySQL JDBC driver under the following URL:

http://dev-mysql.com/downloads/connector/j.

The download contains a JAR file which we require later.
