About the Course

Build on the software engineering skills you learned in “Java Programming: Solving Problems with Software” by learning new data structures. Use these data structures to build more complex programs that use Java’s object-oriented features. At the end of the course you will write an encryption program and a program to break your encryption algorithm. After completing this course, you will be able to: 1. Read and write data from/to files; 2. Solve problems involving data files; 3. Perform quantitative analyses of data (e.g., finding maximums, minimums, averages); 4. Store and manipulate data in an array or ArrayList; 5. Combine multiple classes to solve larger problems; 6. Use iterables and collections (including maps) in Java....

Even if Java language isn't the most "beautiful" one nowadays, it still the base if you want to understand some programs nowadays.

Very challenging. For absolute beginners maybe a little bit hard. Above all, you also get some programming experience in Java.

As always, very thorough and helpful (learning by doing "countless" tasks is a great way to go, from my perspective). Thanks!

Takes you by the hand to continue understanding Java. I used to HATE Java. Now it has become like Whisky, an acquired taste.
