Core Java - Foundations

LearnKartS combines language foundations with an introduction to object-oriented Java. Variables and flow control develop into classes, inheritance and interfaces, with exceptions and other core features included in the roughly nine-hour outline.

What you will learn

• Use Java types and control structures in a small program.
• Represent behavior with classes and interfaces.
• Handle errors and refactor repeated code.

Who this suits

Learners seeking a broad first course in Java. The provider states no prerequisite.

Before you enroll

The course is marked beginner but covers several concepts in a compact period. Spend additional time writing small examples before combining inheritance, interfaces and exceptions.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Tool subscriptions, model API usage and cloud services may cost extra.

Put it into practice

Model a fictional library’s books and loans. Separate one changing policy behind an interface and explain how that choice affects the rest of the code.
