Video Description
You’re a junior developer with a couple of years of Java under your belt and you’ve hit the Java wall of mystery. The knowledge blocker where complex concepts like concurrency and network programming or generics and collections leave you baffled and unable to proceed. In this video, Java wizard Ken Kousen de-mystifies all to transport you to a smarter place. A place where your newfound Java skills work magic into the day-to-day practices of database programming, network programming and back-end web development. Spells uncovered include: generic programming, concurrency, interfaces, inheritance, objects, the new I/O packages, working with relational databases, networking, testing, inner classes, and the new features of Java 8. Put on your cape and zoom.
- Become masterful at complex Java concepts like concurrency and network programming
- Use your new Java skills to program databases, network systems, and back-end web applications
- Understand interfaces, inheritance, and objects; generics and collections; and the new I/O packages
- Learn about the Java Persistence API and how to integrate JDBC classes with relational databases
- Practice testing with JUnit and discover how to implement inner classes
- Explore newly released Java 8 features such as lambdas, streams, and the Java.Time package
