This course introduces beginning and intermediate programmers to the Java programming language. In this course you will learn to write simple Java programs. Even if you have done some programming before, this course should expand your programming knowledge.
Java is evolving rapidly; the course is based on Java SE 11, a recent and widely used version of the language. The first few chapters introduce you to the basic structure of a Java class, which is the basis of all Java programs. You will learn how to work with expressions and assignments, how to use some built-in functions, and how to program with conditional and loop statements.
Java is based on object-oriented programming, and you will be introduced to this at an early point. As you learn more about OOP, you will also meet many of Java's advanced data structures, starting with Arrays and ArrayLists. You will also learn how to deal with errors and exceptions.
Next you will tour some of Java's many facilities for input and output. You will then be introduced to algorithm development and selection, and explore the expanded world of Java modules and packages.
In the final lesson, you will see how to break free of a text-based world and use Java to manage graphics and construct robust user interfaces for any type of program you may wish to build. There will be a brief introduction to animation as well, which is the biggest step toward Java game construction.
If you complete this course, you should be well on your way to becoming a productive Java programmer!
