    Learn Java quickly by watching this video to the very end. If you do, you will walk away as a better java programmer :)
    Here's how to learn java in 13 minutes, for beginners. I've been programming for 8+ years and learning java was very difficult for me. I want to make it as easy as possible for you to learn java quick and easy! Hopefully, what you've learned in this video on how to learn java quickly can help you out.
    In this java tutorial, I go over:
    Compiling, keywords, symbols, storing data, primitive types, Strings, printing text, objects, classes, methods, calling code between files, import, logic, if/else, for loops, nested loops, while loops, try catch, apis, and a few other areas.
    Learning java tricky at first... But SURELY you'll get it :) If you followed along, congrats! You learned-by-doing!
    I hope you enjoyed this video to learn java in 13 minutes, I tried to get everything I could in the shortest amount of time for you! I like to have a nice mix of java tutorials and actual java projects for you all :)
    Was this able to help you learn java? If you have a topic that I missed that you think might help someone else, please add it below so we can help other people learn java! -

    As someone who did struggle for 1 year to learn, I had to come here to say: the best way to learn for a complete beginner are books with interactive content. Those that you practice coding on each chapter.
    Avoid complicated tutorials for now. Focus on learning your first programming language and everything else will be much easier once you learn.
    Edit: For those asking, the books that made me learn were "Javascript In Less Than 50 Pages" and "Smarter Way to Learn Python".

    • @TurkeyTray
      @TurkeyTray Pƙed 11 měsĂ­ci +8

      Yeah. Books are most definitely the right way to go. My Java teacher didn't teach the language and instead just gave a pdf of the book "Introduction to Java Programming AP Edition" by Y. Daniel Liang. It's a really good book--although very bulky. It teaches all of the core ideas and then provides a plethora of coding exercises. Not the quickest way to learn code but a pretty thorough one. I don't understand why it says AP Edition though because it all seemed pretty rudimentary, but that might just be because I have a decent amount of coding knowledge.

    • @TurkeyTray
      @TurkeyTray Pƙed 11 měsĂ­ci +5

      ​@@user-wi3hf4pg3s I think the best way to improve would be to practice with a problem you make yourself. For inheritance you could try making a basic account system with a checking and savings account. You could keep it simple with parameters you design, so it doesn't seem like this egregious task. Bottom line is to just make a project from your own idea and make it. I decided that I wanted to make a binary to decimal converter, so I made one. After I finished it, I decided that it would be cool if I learned how to make it run outside of the IDE. Just get a core idea and expand on it till you're satisfied that you improved. You could even go so far and make your own library with problems that you run into commonly (example of this would be a way to swap variables). I hope this helps!

      ​@@user-wi3hf4pg3s I think the best begginer must do project is a CRUD. It's very intuitive, because if you're making a petshop crud, you can use father objects like pet, customer, workers and their relationships are very clear and intuitive, and you can make more complex implementations like LDAP, database connection, threads, queues etc. Idk if the description I gave you it's object oriented accurate lmao, but you can have an idea of what I meant. Also, there's a java fundamentals course inside oracle academy, and I think that's a very good course to improve or start learning.

      This video is still a joke. It's like telling someone the top 1,000 words of english, and then not explaining that their colloquialisms, idioms, phrasal verbs, and then saying, "yay! You learned English in 20 minutes!" then send them off to a dive bar and expect them to understand a single word the people are saying. Maybe this video captures the use cases, but not the libraries that you need to leverage. If it included those, it would be a whole other story, and not one you could tell in 14 minutes.

    I haven't worked with Java since my days at university. Back then it was this scary and difficult language.
    After 3 years of development experience and watching your 14min video I can say that it is actually easy.
    If you understand the basics of development (like he explained it). Then any language is understandable.
    When I started out, I saw a development as this big mountain with millions of things you need to learn (probably is a million possible ways of doing the same thing), but the fundamentals of any programming language is quite small compared to what I initially thought.
    Word of advice: Don't get scared of the mountain. Start walking.... later you will realize you are standing on top and that it is actually a steep hill.

      Yeah I agree. I only watched it because it was going to teach me some stuff because I have never done OOP or used Java before. I found some cool stuff but I still get confused on other things like public, static, etc. Good overview though. Learned a few things faster but still need to learn more before I get used to it. I know basics like functions, loops, conditionals, variables, and such but because Java is an OOP langage and I am not used to OOP, I get confused on what it does.

    • @Scoin0
      @Scoin0 Pƙed 4 lety +48

      The keywords are pretty simple stuff. Public can be used by all classes, private can only be used for that specific class. There's also protected. The static keyword allows you to use the method, or what ever you called static, without creating the object.
      But really, for anyone that knows anything, this video really doesn't do much. I feel like all of it could have been done and said in like 5 minutes.

    Here's a perspective on the red line you may not have considered: it lets people learning Java know exactly what keystroke breaks code or makes it work. I find it helpful personally just so I'm knowing what each keystroke does.

    For confused people about returns
    A method also known as function can return data if the programmer wants to.
    A method is defined like this:
    ()
    Like:
    public static String GetAnimal(){
    return "Cat";
    }
    Reason why we use return's is to gather informations or results from a called method, like we can do a method that checks if the user is administrator, if not. It will return false and if yes, it will return true. If you put "void" as the return type, it means the method will **not** return anything. However, returning data within the code (method {}) will end the method as returns are taken as "end the method" for java.
    Can you end Void?
    Yes, even though you cannot logically return anything for void methods. You can do "return;" which wont return anything (wont affect the code in anyway) and will end the method.

    When you mentioned your breakdown I really felt that. I wish I found your channel when I started my intro to programming course. I’ve re-evaluated my life choices and what I want to do with college and my career. This video gave me some motivation again to continue on, thanks.

    This is one of the best Java videos I've ever seen, I struggled to learn Java as a first coding language at University and it put me off the field a lot. Then I decided to learn Javascript for web development which taught me the general logic of coding. And now this video has legit taught me more about Java than any uni lecture or book ever has. Thank you!! đŸ™ŒđŸ»

    Keep up the great work 👍
    Edit: I will also definitely be checking out the full course whenever I have time

    I've been beginning to learn Java, and this was SO HELPFUL, especially the part where you showed us how to bring in other programs, that's something I fell that I'll use so often, as I'll create a bunch of codes that do quick tasks that I can source in my bigger programs, that I'll have do a large number of tasks

    This was fairly east for me to understand since I just learned Python! I loved the way you explained everything very quickly but it was clear. I am learning Java in a few weeks and wanted to get ahead, so this helped alot! Ty!
