Book Description
Learn Java with Projects stands out in the world of Java guides; while some books skim the surface and others get lost in too much detail, this one finds a nice middle ground.
You'll begin by exploring the fundamentals of Java, from its primitive data types through to loops and arrays. Next, you'll move on to object-oriented programming (OOP), where you'll get to grips with key topics such as classes, objects, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, interfaces, and more. The chapters are designed in a way that focuses on topics that really matter in real-life work situations. No extra fluff here, so that you get more time to spend on the basics and form a solid foundation. As you make progress, you'll learn advanced topics including generics, collections, lambda expressions, streams and concurrency. This book doesn't just talk about theory-it shows you how things work with little projects, which eventually add up to one big project that brings it all together.
By the end of this Java book, you'll have sound practical knowledge of Java and a helpful guide to walk you through the important parts of Java.What you will learnGet a clear understanding of Java fundamentals such as primitive types, operators, scope, conditional statements, loops, exceptions, and arrays
Master OOP constructs such as classes, objects, enums, interfaces, and records
Develop a deep understanding of OOP principles such as polymorphism, inheritance, and encapsulation
Delve into the advanced topics of generics, collections, lambdas, streams, and concurrency
Visualize what is happening in memory when you call a method or create an object
Appreciate how effective learning-by-doing is
