Java Programming

Course Description

Java is one of the most popular programming languages in the world. Widely used for server-side applications as well as for Android, it has an extremely rich ecosystem of organisations, tools, tutorials, documentation and libraries that provide a strong platform for application development.

This course is a full introduction to Java and explores the whole language with practical exercises at each step. Its purpose is to make you fully effective in developing Java applications within your organisation. This training course combines lectures with practical exercises (approx 50% taught and 50% exercises and discussion) that help the delegates to put what they have learned on the training course into practice.

Course Duration

5 days

Course Objectives

This course is designed to enable delegates to understand the core principles of the Java language.  Delegates are shown how to program using Java.  On completion of this course delegates should:

  • be able to construct Java programs to solve software problems in an object-oriented fashion;
  • understand the primitive constructs, operators and data types of the Java language and be able to make use of data types, flow-control and arrays; understand program organization through functions, classes, class and archive files;
  • understand the use and misuse of inheritance, abstract classes and interfaces, and be able to exploit polymorphic behavior; 
  • be familiar with the common Java libraries, and be able to employ these in constructing systems;
  • understand the issues involved in constructing industrial strength systems to promote efficiency, reusability and program robustness;
  • understand the principles of multi-threading and be able to apply these using Java’s programming constructs.
