First, find your actual Java SDK Home directory:

	/usr/libexec/java_home

Manually navigate there to make sure you dont have any mistakes due to
incorrect versions, etc. For me, this was:

	/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-13.0.2.jdk/Contents/Home

Next, edit your terminal profile. If youre using zsh, this will be:

	vim ~/.zshrc

If you're not using zsh, this will be:

	vim ~/.bash_profile

Inside, add the following new line anywhere in the file:

export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-13.0.2.jdk/Contents/Home

Restart your terminal app (or source ~/.bash_profile), and it should work
properly.

Other Method, If you are using bash, all you have to do is:

	echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home)" >> ~/.bash_profile

If you are using zsh (which probably means you are running macOS Catalina
or newer), then it should instead be:

	echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home)" >> ~/.zshrc

In either case, restart your shell.

And If you have multiple JDK versions installed and you want it to be a 
specific one, you can use the -v flag to java_home like so:

echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7)" >> ~/.bash_profile
