New Course: Java Programming for Complete Beginners

I must have been enrolled in this course in the Summer of 2018.

How do I guess?

I got my first email about some announcement on Fri, Oct 19, 2018, 8:40 AM.

The original title of this course was: Java Programming for Complete Beginners in 250 Steps.

And I found the email with this title:

I was enrolled in this program on Fri, Aug 17, 2018, 9:06 PM.

Why did I choose this program?

It was free that time.

Plus, I had memories of people talking about Java in the early 2000s.

Nah, I tried a few Java courses on a lot of surfaces.

I did not managed ot like this language, but I kept going and taking those courses as well.

In the meantime, people who were hired for any job were super proud of themselves...

And I had to suffer their attitude...

I, in a loop, was always terrorized by barely educated people. Were they? No, they had one main education, they worked somewhere, and they were super proud of themselves, and they were the ones who super ignored my life experiences, my previous education, and my challenges...

And then they were the ones as well, akik segghulyek voltak mindenhez...

nah... so I was in a loop... study more... get humiliated... and all the limited-minded people got positive evaluations and more...

How? By saying shit on me...

Bravo!

And if I made myself busy and minded my own business, just like bullies, they came after me, and like furious, super jealous, shit were ready to take anything from me...

And the law must only protect them, and I had to suffer a lot of injustice...

Worse than Alice in Wonderland...

COURSE OVERVIEW

Java is one of the most popular programming languages. Java offers both object-oriented and functional programming features.

We take a hands-on approach using a combination of JShell and Eclipse as an IDE to illustrate more than 200 Java Coding Exercises, Puzzles, and Code Examples. This course assumes no previous ( beginner ) programming or Java experience. If you’ve never programmed a computer before, or if you already have experience with another programming language and want to quickly learn Java, this is a perfect course for you.

In more than 250 Steps, we explore the most important Core Java Programming Language Features
