Series Details

About

We will go over the basics of Java in this short and condensed series. The goal of this series is to give you a basic understanding of Java while helping you feel comfortable solving basic computer science questions with Java. Each session will have short demonstrations and a challenge for you guys to complete. It would be best to be able to code along with me, so I recommend having an IDE or a repl.it account. In this series, I will cover the basic syntax of java, datatypes, variables, math operations, comparsion operators, arrays, a little bit of object oriented programming and more. I won't assign homework (though I encourage completing the tasks I give you guys). There is no need for a microphone or camera, though participation in the chat or through unmuting would be good.

Tutor Qualifications

I learned java on my own and also through my school's computer science class in which I completed the course with a 100% average

About the Tutor

Hello! I'm a student from Ontario, Canada! I want to help others with school because I know how it feels to struggle. I know how to play the piano and I enjoy things such as playing games and reading. I'm also a swim instructor!

Session 1

Computer Science

In this session, we will be doing a basic introduction to Java. We will cover what Java is, the basic data types there are, if statements and loops. I will provide examples of basic programs and you guys can try to follow along if you have a IDE or have a repl.it account (you can create a repl.it account for free if you don't already have one).
