Course Description
Learn to program in the Java programming language. This course assumes no prior programming knowledge, just a desire to learn to program.
Pros
Cons
-
- The introduction lessons are comprehensive. Every step is explained and easy to follow.
- Algorithm-focused Java sets this course apart from most introductory courses.
- Example-based lectures take Java out of the abstract and focus on real-world applications.
-
- Course spends minimal time on object-oriented programming concepts and lessons.
- Second half of the course moves much faster than the first half and can be difficult for complete beginners to follow.
- There is no course transcript. Having one would add clarity to the overall course and help some students learn faster and more effectively.
