Course Description
The he Java Collection Framework: Core, Advanced & Interview Preparation course is your ultimate answer to the mastering of one of Java's most powerful tools. It can be very useful for both a developer wanting better performance for applications and preparation for the toughest technical interviews. Equipped with such knowledge and confidence, you can tackle anything with the best application.
This course covers everything thoroughly:
Core Fundamentals: Understanding the basic building blocks of Java Collections, such as Lists, Sets, Maps, and Queues, and their application in the real world.
Advanced Concepts: Understanding performance optimization, synchronized collections, and the Stream API in Java 8 for efficient coding in the modern world.
Practical Use Cases: Developing real-world projects like task schedulers, caching mechanisms, and many more to enhance your skills.
Interview Readiness: Master the most commonly asked interview questions and problem-solving challenges.
Conclusion
1. Introduction to Collections: Setting up the base with an overview of the Collection Framework and generics.
2. Core Interfaces of the Collection Framework: Master List, Set, Queue, and Map interfaces for effective data handling.
3. Collection Classes and Implementations: Learn about ArrayList, LinkedList, HashSet, and other classes for optimal performance.
4. Synchronized and unmodifiable collections, iterator vs. ListIterator, performance considerations.
5. Java 8 Enhancements to Collections & Stream API: Simplify data manipulation using lambda expressions and parallel streams.
6. Concurrent Collections: Master thread-safe collections like ConcurrentHashMap and BlockingQueue for scalable applications.
7. Algorithms and Utilities in Collections: Learn sorting, searching, and utility methods to enhance your problem-solving skills.
8. Practical Examples and Use Cases: Now it is your turn to practice what you have learned by applying it to tasks such as task scheduling and caching.
9. Interview Preparation: Get ready for technical interviews with coding challenges and FAQs.
