The Complete Java Programmer: From Scratch to Advanced

Learn to write a Java hello world program by understanding the main method syntax, including public static void main(String[] args), and printing with System.out.println for the hello message.

Explore explicit and implicit type conversion in Java, showing how declaring a variable and assigning float values can truncate decimals when converting to int, and how explicit casting enforces conversions.

Learn how the increment and decrement operators work in Java, comparing pre and post forms, and observe how evaluation uses original versus updated values in expressions.

Explore if-else logic in Java using a chocolate incident as a relatable example, covering conditions, relational operators (>, <, >=, <=, ==, !=), and basic print statements.

Explore how the final keyword in Java makes values constant, preventing reassignment of pi-like numbers stored as double or float, and its use in Android development.

Design a simple calculator in Java using switch-case with breaks and a default case by reading two numbers and an operation, then perform addition or subtraction and print the result.

Explore the do while loop in Java, which executes the block before the condition and guarantees at least one execution, and compare it to the while loop that tests first.

Learn to implement a Java factorial program by taking user input, looping from one to n, and multiplying sequentially to compute the result.

Learn how to collect multiple user inputs into an array using a scanner, store each element by index, and print the array elements.

Demonstrate the enhanced for loop by iterating over an array of seven days and printing each day, and show how to access elements and determine the array size.

Explore the Java Math class, its static methods like sin, cos, abs, max, and min, accessible without creating objects. Learn how to use rounding and floor/ceil methods to compare values.

Explore object oriented programming in Java by treating real world entities as classes and objects, with attributes and methods created via new and accessed through static and member calls.

Explore how static methods differ from instance methods and are called via class name without creating an object. Learn when to instantiate for non-static methods and the role of constructors.

Learn how to define and call Java methods, differentiate static and instance methods, use public and private access, and pass or return parameters in a practical main method example.

Learn polymorphism: the same method name with different implementations across classes, using objects to call the appropriate version, with subclass methods taking priority.

Explore the super keyword in Java, using it to access superclass attributes and methods from a subclass, resolve attribute values like color when both classes define them, and understand inheritance.

Learn how Java's data structures, especially lists such as ArrayList, are provided in java.util, how to import them, and how to instantiate and use List, LinkedList, and HashMap.

Learn file handling in Java by reading data from text files with the java.io module, using Scanner, handling file not found and io exceptions, and closing resources safely.
