Java: Inheritance, Exceptions and APIs
About this course
Java: Inheritance, Exceptions, and APIs is the third course of Exam Prep: Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 8 [1Z0-808] Specialization. This course begins with essential Java fundamentals, covering syntax, variables, and data types, before progressing into more advanced topics such as object-oriented programming, inheritance, and encapsulation. Learners will explore how to apply operators and decision constructs, create and manipulate arrays, and effectively use looping mechanisms to control program flow. The course emphasizes method creation, overloading, and the use of access modifiers for building modular, reusable code. Hands-on modules focus on manipulating data with Strings, StringBuilder, and ArrayList, managing calendar data, and writing lambda expressions that implement functional interfaces such as Predicate. This course is ideal for: - Individuals who are starting their careers in Java development. - Students who have completed foundational Java courses and want to validate their knowledge with an industry-recognized certification. - Individuals who provide support for Java applications, including how exceptions work and how APIs are used, can help them diagnose problems more efficiently. By the end of the course, you will be able to: - Apply object-oriented programming concepts by implementing inheritance, polymorphism, and interfaces to design modular and reusable Java classes. - Analyze program errors by creating try-catch blocks, differentiating between checked, unchecked, and Error types, and using exception handling to maintain normal program flow. - Develop Java data structures and API to efficiently manage data in Java applications.
