Learn to Program with Java

Course Summary

With over 20 hours of content spread across 200+ lectures, this two part online training course is designed to introduce the complete beginner to computer programming using the Java language.

Part 1 of this course begins with definitions of basic terminology as well as the typical "Hello, World!" program. You will learn about basic Java data types next so that you can declare and use variables in your programs. From there, you will learn to read information from the user and output information to the screen. Finally, you will learn to create and evaluate expressions using arithmetic, relational and logical operators.

In Part 2 of this course, you will first learn how to make decisions in Java programs using if and switch statements. Next, you will learn how to create while, do, and for loops to repeatedly run statements in your programs. Then, you will learn how to modularize your programs by extracting common code into methods. The course continues with coverage of data collections using both arrays and classes. Finally, you will learn how to read and write files using objects from the Java libraries.
