About this course
With over 125 videos and 12 hours of content, this online training course is designed to introduce the complete beginner to computer programming using the Java language. You must complete Part 1 of this course before you take 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.
