Java for Beginners

Hi, I am planning a Java For Beginners course, if there is an interest in this. If you want to get updates when it is finalized drop me an email at [email protected].

My current thought is to cover these topics:

– Eclipse: create, build, debug Java projects
– Primitive types: int, double, boolean
– Branching: if, else, switch, ternary
– Strings
– Arrays
– Looping: for, while
– Collections: lists, maps, sets
– Defining Classes, Interfaces, Objects
– Exceptions: try, catch
– File I/O: reading, writing files
– Database access

Let me know if you would like to get updates when the course is finalized. Thanks. Asim
