This Java SE training introduces you to object-oriented programming using the Java language. Through hands-on exercises, you'll begin to build a baseline of knowledge to propel your career in development.

• Use Java programming language constructs to create a Java technology application.

• Use decision and looping constructs and methods to dictate program flow.

• Understand basic object oriented concepts such as inheritance, encapsulation, and abstraction.

• Use and manipulate object references, and to write simple error handling code.

• Use the new SE 8 java.time and java.time.format packages to format and print the local date and time.

• Specify a data modification by passing a predicate lambda expression to the Collections class.

Objectives

• Write Java code that uses variables, arrays, conditional and loop constructs

• Manipulate primitive numeric data and string data using Java operators

• Create Java classes and use object references

• Access the fields and methods of an object

• Manipulate text data using the methods of the String and StringBuilder classes

• Use casting without losing precision or causing errors

• Declare, override, and invoke methods

• Access and create static fields and methods

• Use classes from the java.time and java.time.format packages to format and print the local date and time

• Encapsulate a class using access modifiers and overloaded constructors

• Define and implement a simple class hierarchy

• Demonstrate polymorphism by implementing a Java Interface

• Use a Predicate Lambda expression as the argument to a method

• Handle a checked exception in a Java application
