About

A course that serves as a passageway into the world of programming using Java. Please make sure to have a computer/laptop (doesn't have to be fancy)! This class plans to go from basic Java such as boilerplate code, and ends off on inheritance/interfaces. (It's ok if you don't know what that means!)
