Description

Interestingly, learning different computer languages can also provide amazing benefits.

These benefits are not just mental, but are also a useful application in everyday life. Smartphones, parking key fobs, security badges and using a device to unlock a car door are some of the daily items that have been programmed to perform in a certain way.

Understanding how to program can be an amazing asset and while there are many different languages, none is quite as easy to learn as Java. Java was created with efficiency and uniformity in mind.

The goal was to create a program with greater capabilities than C/C++ but with more simplicity. In this Java Programming for Beginners course, you will learn the basics of programming using the Java language as well as many of the benefits that will pave the way for efficient programming.

Although this course is completed using an Apple Mac, we do supply instructions in Module 2 regarding the installation and use of Java on a Windows platform.

What you will learn in this course:
  • How to set up a computer for Java programming and learn about pre-installed programs
  • Learn about the ‘modulus operator’ and what it means
  • How to identify a comment line and what the purpose of a comment is in a program
  • Learn about the length method
  • Learn about data structures
  • Learn about class-object relationship and start learning about object-oriented programming in Java
  • Learn about Booleans and what purpose they serve
The benefits of this course:
  • Learning the most commonly used computer language
  • Knowing Java can increase professional opportunities as a programmer or software engineer. Java programmers are in high demand and are among the highest paid in the industry
  • Java has a very in-depth API and can be used to implement other kinds of software
  • It will make you a better developer with its rich IDEs (Integrated Development Environment) providing suggestions and notifying of errors
  • Java will help you understand more complex programming concepts

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
