You?ll also gain practical experience in applying the concepts and techniques learned, solidifying your newly acquired skills and facilitating their direct application in real-world scenarios. You?ll exit this course empowered to create robust, scalable, and efficient Java-based applications that drive innovation and growth for your organization The Java Platform The Java Platform Lifecycle of a Java Program Responsibilities of JVM Documentation and Code Reuse Using the JDK Explain the JDK?s file structure Use the command line compiler to compile a Java class Use the command line Java interpreter to run a Java application class The IntelliJ Paradigm Introduce the IntelliJ IDE The Basics of the IntelliJ interface IntelliJ Projects and Modules Creating and running Java applications Writing a Simple Class Write a Java class that does not explicitly extend another class Define instance variables for a Java class Create object instances Primitives vs Object References Implement a main method to create an instance of the defined class Adding Methods to the Class Write a class with accessor methods to read and write instance variables Write a constructor to initialize an instance with data Write a constructor that calls other constructors of the class to benefit from code reuse Use the this keyword to distinguish local variables from instance variables Object-Oriented Programming Real-World Objects Classes and Objects Object Behavior Methods and Messages Inheritance, Abstraction, and Polymorphism Encapsulation Inheritance Method Overriding Polymorphism Essential Java Programming Essential Java Programming Language Statements Arithmetic operators Operators to increment and decrement numbers Comparison operators Logical operators Return type of comparison and logical operators Use for loops Switch Expressions Switch Expressions and yield Using Strings and Text Blocks Create an instance of the String class Test if two strings are equal Get the length of a string Parse a string for its token components Perform a case-insensitive equality test Build up a string using StringBuffer Contrast String, StringBuffer,and StringBuilder Compact Strings Text Blocks Specializing in a Subclass Constructing a class that extends another class Implementing equals and toString Writing constructors that pass initialization data to parent constructor Using instanceof to verify type of an object reference Pattern matching for instanceof Overriding subclass methods Safely casting references to a more refined type Fields and Variables Discuss Block Scoping Rules Distinguish between instance variables and method variables within a method Explain the difference between the terms field and variable List the default values for instance variables Final and Static fields and methods Local Variable type inference Using Arrays Declaring an array reference Allocating an array Initializing the entries in an array Writing methods with a variable number of arguments Records Data Objects in Java Introduce records as carrier of immutable data Defining records Java Packages and Visibility Use the package keyword to define a class within a specific package Discuss levels of accessibility/visibility Using the import keyword to declare references to classes in a specific package Using the standard type naming conventions Visibility in the Java Modular System Correctly executing a Java application class The Java modular system Defining Modules Inheritance and Polymorphism Write a subclass with a method that overrides a method in the superclass Group objects by their common supertype Utilize polymorphism Cast a supertype reference to a valid subtype reference Use the final keyword on methods and classes to prevent overriding Interfaces and Abstract Classes Define supertype contracts using abstract classes Implement concrete classes based on abstract classes Define supertype contracts using interfaces Implement concrete classes based on interfaces Explain advantage of interfaces over abstract classes Explain advantage of abstract classes over interfaces Static, default and private methods in interfaces Sealed classes Introduce Sealed classes The sealed and permits modifiers Sealed Interfaces Exception Handling Introduction to Exception Handling Introduce the Exception architecture Defining a try/catch blocks Checked vs Unchecked exceptions Exceptions Defining your own application exceptions Automatic closure of resources Suppressed exceptions Handling multiple exceptions in one catch Helpful Nullpointers Enhanced try-with-resources Java Developer's Toolbox Developing applications Introduce the wrapper classes Explain Autoboxing and Unboxing Converting String representations of primitive numbers into their primitive types Defining Enumerations Using static imports Deprecating methods Advanced Java Programming Introduction to Generics Generics and Subtyping Bounded Wildcards Generic Methods Legacy Calls To Generics When Generics Should Be Used Lambda Expressions and Functional Interface Understanding the concept of functional programming Writing lambda expressions Understanding functional interfaces Collections Provide an overview of the Collection API Review the different collection implementations (Set, List and Queue) Explore how generics are used with collections Examine iterators for working with collections Using Collections Collection Sorting Comparators Using the Right Collection Lambda expressions in Collections Bonus Topics: Time Permitting Streams Understanding the problem with collections in Java Thinking of program solutions in a declarative way Use the Stream API to process collections of data Understand the difference between intermediate and terminal stream operations Filtering elements from a Stream Finding element(s) within a Stream Collecting the elements from a Stream into a List takeWhile and dropWhile intermediate operations Collectors Using different ways to collect the items from a Stream Grouping elements within a stream Gathering statistics about numeric property of elements in a stream

Duration 2 Days 12 CPD hours This course is intended for The Professional Scrum Master course is for anyone involved in software development using the Scrum framework. It is particularly beneficial for those people within an organization accountable for getting the most out of Scrum, including Scrum Masters, managers, and Scrum Team members. Overview Students are challenged to think within the Scrum framework and the underlying values and principles to better understand what to do when returning to the workplace and facing complex decisions. This course covers the principles and (empirical) process theory underpinning the Scrum framework, and the role of the Scrum Master in it. This course is a combination of instruction and team based exercises, and teaches what is at the heart of the Scrum and Agile movement.
