Java Programming: OOP, Collections, and Modern Features

Ready to take your Java skills beyond the syntax basics? Building real-world applications requires a solid understanding of how to structure code, manage data, and handle errors effectively. This comprehensive text-based course guides you through intermediate Java concepts, helping you transition from writing simple scripts to designing robust, maintainable programs.\n\nWhat you'll learn:\n- Understand core object-oriented principles like inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation.\n- Manage complex data sets efficiently using the Java Collections Framework, including lists, sets, and maps.\n- Handle runtime errors gracefully using Java's robust exception handling mechanisms.\n- Apply modern Java features such as records, switch expressions, and basic lambda expressions.\n- Practice writing clean, readable code with standard Java naming conventions and formatting.\n- Read and write data using Java's input/output (I/O) streams.\n\nYou will start with foundational object-oriented concepts before exploring data structures, error handling, and modern syntax enhancements through structured written explanations and code exercises. This course is designed for learners who know basic Java syntax, such as variables, loops, and basic conditionals, and want to progress to structured application development.
