Overview/Description
Practical application of programming concepts is crucial to developing skills in a particular programming language. This course demonstrates how to use the features of Java SE 6 to create business applications. It will cover using the basic building blocks of classes, objects, methods, and data types, as well as operators and flow control to create basic but useful applications. This course will also cover how to use features such as inheritance, generics, and threading to enhance code and build robust apps. It will also cover how to use Java I/O and Java database connectivity or JDBC to build data-driven applications. Finally, you'll learn how to build and incorporate a user interface and work with Java applets. This course can be used as part of the preparation for the Oracle exam 1Z0-851, Java SE 6 Programmer Certified Professional, to obtain the Oracle Certified Professional Java SE 6 Programmer certification.
