Installing Java7 SDK on Ubuntu

I found this super simple installation guide to get java7 from oracle onto any Ubuntu installation here and would like to shorten it up in a gist:

Install the ppa repo, update apt-get and install java7:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer

Check if it installed correctly:

$ java -version
$ javac -version
