Course Description
You will work with advanced features of Java.

Course Objective:
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

  • create and manage custom classes.
  • control program flow by writing code to respond to specific criteria.
  • implement object-oriented programming techniques to create reusable and reliable programs.
  • work with Java utility class libraries.
  • use the capabilities of the Java I/O package to read and write data to external files or media.
  • use collection APIs in Java to manage data.
  • use generics to enforce compile-time type checking.
  • use multi-threaded programs to help handle multiple tasks concurrently.
  • manage Java applications for memory efficiency and create distributable versions of a Java application.
