Java is an object-oriented programming language, and it is
one of the most popular programming languages used by developers. If you’re
looking to become a freelance software developer, looking to join a Java
developer company, or just trying to add a tool to your toolbox, Java is a
great language to learn. What sets Java apart is that the same piece of code
can be run on any platform without being recompiled. Fortunately, Java is easy
to learn and there are a few ways to learn it.
Classes
If you prefer learning in a traditional classroom setting,
you can take a class in Java at a local college or university. This is easiest
if you’re already enrolled at a school, but even if you aren’t, you can usually
pay for the single course by enrolling as a non-degree student. If you end up
liking the course, you may end up using that credit towards getting an entire
degree. Sometimes non-credit courses are also offered by colleges which don’t’
require enrollment.
Online Classes
Online classes and tutorials can also help you learn Java.
Learning a computer language means you’re going to be sitting at your computer
anyway, so it only makes sense to look online for help. You can take online
classes from a university that will give you college credit, or you can take
free, non-credit classes. If you’re looking more for more of a crash course
instead of a thorough education, you can look for tutorials that will get you
doing what you want to do quickly.
Reference Books
Finally, you can also use a reference book to learn Java.
This is only recommended for those who are already familiar with programming
basics. These books are huge, and the language within is very technical, so
you’re probably not going to read it cover to cover. Instead, you can simply
use it as a reference when you get stuck. By having a reference book handy
while taking a class or following tutorials, you will learn Java in no time.
Once you have the knowledge, you can apply at a Java developer company or start working on your own projects.
