Java Programming for Developers

This training course covers the core components of the Java Programming Language. The training course is designed to teach programmers of other languages the skills needed to learn how to write robust, industry standard, platform independent Java applications leveraging the power and flexibility of the Java platform. The course can be delivered with a variety of IDEs including IntelliJ, VisualStudio Code, or Eclipse as the development environment.

Objectives

• Understand the Java runtime environment and the role of the virtual machine
• Identify and use the Java primitive datatypes
• Use the Java flow control constructs
• Understand the difference between classes and objects
• Implement instance data, methods, constructors, and method overloading
• Understand and implement the concept of inheritance
• Define the role of an interface, and be able to create and use one
• Understand the concept of static data and methods
• Understand the concept of polymorphism and be able to take advantage of it using Java
• Be able to implement the Java Collections API using Generics
• Build error handling blocks into applications
• Understand the need for Enums and be able to create an Enum using Java
• Working with Lambda Expressions

Prerequisites

• The training course assumes that delegates are already programmers. They will already understand the need for flow control, variables, operators and functions, and indeed have used them in other language contexts.
• It assumes no knowledge of the object-oriented paradigm as object oriented theory is also covered in the content of the training course.
