Java Summer course(ish)

What to expect

• A good progression scheme through the basic concepts of OOP (in Java)
• A good chunk of exercises and assignments which should offer (if properly done) good insight on new OOP concepts and Java's specific innards.
• After completing this course, you should be able to think in the (for some) new OOP paradigm with ease and you will be able to model a problem according to these knew principles and concepts

What not to expect

• A hold my hand while I learn Java type of interaction. The purpose is not to reproduce an elementary-school type class but rather point the student into a direction and guide him/her on a path.
• A mastery of OOP and Java. Maybe in 5-10 years.

First steps

• Git Tutorials

  • 1 - Installing GIT
  • 2 - Fork and Clone
  • 3 - Commit Push and Pull Request

• Java & Eclipse must-haves

  • Installing Java JDK + Eclipse IDE
  • Eclipse + Checkstyle Plug-in

• Forum

  • Visit this page and create an account on this forum.
  • The purpose of the forum is to create a nice environment where people can ask question and have them answered by either another student and/or the tutors.
  • Feel free to ask any question but put them in the correct category/folder so everything stays nice and tidy.
