Build a foundation in Java syntax and core programming concepts. Practice writing functions, using loops and data structures, manipulating text, debugging code, and applying object-oriented programming.
What you'll learn
Write simple Java programs using core syntax and programming concepts
Create and use custom and built-in functions
Control program flow with conditionals and loop structures
Manipulate, format, and parse text with Java string operations
Store and retrieve data using arrays, ArrayLists, and HashMaps
Identify and fix common Java coding errors
Apply objects, inheritance, and encapsulation in Java programs
Select and implement appropriate structures using the Java Collections Framework
Work with dates, times, and utility classes like Optional using the Java Utils Framework
