Event Description
Java Programming Event II builds on the foundational understanding of Java by focusing on how Java programs store data and make decisions. In this live session, you’ll learn how Java uses variables and data types to manage information and how program flow is controlled through conditional logic.
This event emphasizes clarity and structure, helping you understand how Java code executes rather than memorizing syntax. You’ll see how values move through a program, how decisions affect outcomes, and how Java enforces type safety to reduce errors.
By the end of the hour, Java programs will feel more predictable and readable, and you’ll be well prepared for deeper, hands-on Java training.
Topic Areas
Topic 1: Variables and Core Data Types
Learn how Java uses variables to store data and how different data types (such as numbers, text, and boolean values) affect program behavior. We’ll discuss why Java requires explicit types and how that improves reliability.
Topic 2: Program Flow and Conditional Logic
Explore how Java programs make decisions using conditional statements. You’ll see how execution paths change based on input and logic, forming the foundation of real-world applications.
Topic 3: Live Java Walkthrough
Watch a guided walkthrough of a simple Java program in IntelliJ IDEA, following execution step by step to see how variables and conditions interact during runtime.
