Core Java Programming Language

About Java Course

Java programming language is a high level, object oriented and general purpose computer programming language. Java is similar to C++ but something is completely different from C++ Using java you can write computer applications , games, utility software and also java is a platform for android OS and its applications.

WHAT IS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE?

Java has something like the human brain. Its name is   “Software Development Kit”.

WHY JAVA?

Java is very easy to learn but if you don’t practice you will not be able to type any code. Any code in Java can work on every platform. (Mac, Windows, etc..) There are many programming languages in the world. The most common ones are Java, Python, and C#. But among those, Java is the most common one in the USA and Europe, as well. After learning Java, learning Python will take a couple of weeks. WHY? Because the logic is completely the same just the syntax will be different.

Java is an Object Oriented Programming Language.For example, in Starbucks, employees are not important because it created a perfect system. Even a kid can prepare perfect coffee. But in a traditional restaurant (Turkish Pide Restaurant) if the cooker is perfect, the pide will be perfect. In real life, the Starbucks system is the best but in coding, OOP is the best because it is possible to create perfect objects.Perfect objects will do perfect tasks. Because of that, in coding, we prefer Object-Oriented Logic.
