Course description
From 0 to 1: Learn Java Programming - Live Free, Learn To Code
About this course:
This course will use Java and an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Never fear, we have a detailed video on how to get this downloaded and set up.Hundreds of lines of source code, and hundreds of lines of comments - just download and open in your IDE! This is a Java course for everyone. Whether you are a complete beginner (a liberal arts major, an accountant, doctor, lawyer) or an engineer with some programming experience but looking to learn Java - this course is right for you.The course is accessible because it assumes absolutely no programming knowledge, and quickly builds up using first principles aloneEven so, this is a serious Java programming class - the gradient is quite steep, and you will go from absolute beginner to an early intermediate level. The course is also quirky. The examples are irreverent. Lots of little touches: repetition, zooming out so we remember the big picture, active learning with plenty of quizzes. There’s also a peppy soundtrack, and art - all shown by studies to improve cognition and recall.
The average salary for a Java developer is $69,722 per year.
