Welcome back, aliens! My name is David Ready, we're going to talk about Core Java.
In this lengthy course, you'll learn everything from the basics of Core Java to the
end of it. This is not the first time I'm uploading a Java video. If you've been
following me for the last few years, you'll find multiple Java playlists and full-
fledged videos. However, the quality of videos is increasing every day, and the
number of features added to the language is going up. That's the reason why I'm
going to re-record the entire course.
Java is famous because it has multiple features that help it be used in the
enterprise market, mobile development, web development, and of course, enterprise
applications. Most big companies use Java as their preferred language. In Java, we
have a technology called JVM, and we have multiple languages running on JVM. So,
even if you're working on a different language, it's ultimately Java technology.
That's why if you learn Core Java, it's much easier to jump to different languages.
Irrespective of which entry you're going for, it can be for development or testing,
and it doesn't matter which language you're working on; they might ask you Java
questions because most interview questions are based on Java. That's because if you
know Java, you can learn other languages easily.
My name is Naveen Reddy, and I'm a corporate trainer software developer currently
focusing on blockchain, but Java is my first love. I've been working on Java for
the last 12 years, and I've made multiple courses on Java on YouTube and different
platforms. Java is difficult to start with, but it's one of the most readable
languages. If you're looking at someone else's code, you can read Java code line by
line. Java is maintainable, and that's why most industries prefer to use Java.
Features of Java
WORA - Write Once, Run Anywhere
Supports Multithreads
Collection API Concept
Exception Handling
Java was made in 1995 by Sun Microsystems and was led by the team of James Gosling.
Later on, Oracle bought Sun, so now the trademark of Java belongs to Oracle. Java
is getting updated every six months to make it the most powerful language. We're
going to start from the basics, and you'll learn a lot of defense stuff. However,
it's not about completing the entire course in one day. You can use a timeline to
jump between these sections, and we also have a code there.
