There are 6 modules in this course

This course will familiarize you with Java and its features. After completing the course, you will be able to solve simple algorithmic tasks and understand how basic console Java applications work.
In this section, you will get acquainted with Java, understand its peculiarities, and why I would recommend learning this particular programming language. You will write your first Java code and familiarize yourself with printing text to the console. Shall we begin?
We have completed a theoretical course, and now the most interesting part begins. In this section, we will familiarize ourselves with the basics of coding, primitive data types, and operations on them. Now your code can perform mathematical tasks and evaluate conditions for further execution. Sounds interesting? Let's start getting acquainted.
In this section, we will familiarize ourselves with various loops such as for, while, and do-while. Loops are essential to any programming language, as they allow us to efficiently iterate over a large amount of data and save significant time. Later on, you will use loops extensively in tasks like sorting, working with arrays, collections, and more. Well then, let's get started.
This section will cover arrays and how to use them correctly. We will learn how to group data into arrays and explore some methods for working with arrays. Arrays are essential to any programming language Java, so let's dive in.
In this section, you will be introduced to a data type called String. Why is there a separate section in the course for this data type? String is a significant data type with many built-in methods and operations. In this course, you will learn about String and StringBuilder, explore their basic methods, and learn how to use strings effectively in Java. So, are you ready to get started?

The teaching methodology at Codefinity is excellent, and I particularly appreciate how it has prepared me to handle real-world coding problems. Currently, I am delving into Node.js and eagerly anticipate building full-stack projects that integrate all the knowledge I have gained.

My first course was 4 hours, I did it in a few days, "nugget-style. The instructions are very clear and easy to understand. There is even a hint to help you get the answer, and if you still cannot get the answer, then you can display the answer.  I love the learning style that is used, it engages me.

Bill Wagner
