Java Programming Level 1: Introduction for Programmers (Live Online)

In this live, instructor-led training course, students who already have a programming background will learn to program in Java. Attendees will learn: how Java works and its place in the world of programming languages; to work with and manipulate strings; to perform math operations; to work with Java operators and loops; to gain a deeper understanding of Object Oriented Programming concepts; to make best use of the Java collections framework; best practices for dealing with exceptions; to package Java code; and work with external data storage systems. This Java course is taught using Java 12.AudienceStudents new to the Java language who already have experience with other programming languages.PrerequisitesThis course is specially designed for individuals with prior programming background. You should also have a working knowledge of Object Oriented Programming concepts. If you have no prior programming experience or are not familiar with Object Oriented Programming, you should consider our "Java Programming Level 1: Introduction for Non-Programmers" course instead.Course OutlineGetting StartedIntroductionWriting, Compiling, and Executing Your Hello World ProgramExercise 1: Creating Your Hello World Program in JavaBasic Syntax and Naming
