Status Updates From Head First Java

I’m learning Java.

More than half way, time to pick up the pace.

I had to return it to the library again, and shifting tech study focus based on current project. Alas

Back to basics book for core java.

Reviewing some of those basics again, in prep to try and teach^^

Well, gonna have to continue reading this after all. Dread it? Run from it? Java arrives all the same. This time in the form of a Spring project at work.

Awesome! I just got a bit lost on the RMI chapter, but everything else was incredible and pretty comprehensive!

Finally, I really get polymorphism.

Polymorphism up next, starting with Better Living in Objectville!

Next up: Using the Java Library

Sinking ill-advised startups is a genuinely great initiative, ngl.

Next up: Cool things you can do with parameters and return types. Exciting!

Two chapters done.

Gotta refresh on Java real quick because of a new job opportunity.

I remember reading probably the 2nd edition of the book way back even before I started uni. Couldn't get much into it at the time, but I remember enjoying the unique teaching and writing style (especially the toaster automation stuff lol). The 3rd edition seems to have released just on time for me.

Fingers crossed, this time I'll finish it.

Giving this a try again. 1st time I tried it, I knew NOTHING about Java, so I tried to compile one of its early demonstrations... Now that I actually know some Java, I've also noticed its footnote kkkkkk that says you kind of should not compile it cause it's an illustration. Besides, I'm also reading Deitel's Java How to Program, doing some exercises etc. Talk about being obsessed kkkkkkkkkkkk

This book is actually funny. Silly but funny.

I've been working with Java for almost a year now and I was beginning to think I should do a formal study of the language. I picked this book up. Head Firsts are written unconventionally, they are real page turners. First 200 pages of the book felt like a refresher but now things are starting to get real. I don't know if I will learn what I want from this book but it sure is a good one for beginners.

risky behaviour and dealing with Exceptions

some speaking about statics and final things
with formating and dates.

object life and death (instance and local var) stack and heaps

multiple inheritance with Deadly Diamond of Death and interface

polymorphism, casting, and its relation with reference Type dealing with object Type.

general talks about inheritance and polymorphism
with good notes on points, someone may make mistakes to take care of.

the author talks about how the ArrayList is important in some situations and proved that with a simple game he made in the chapter before

prep code is like sketching on papers then the idea of writing tests iteratively every time then doing the implementation details is also easy to develop and design

Good book, fun approach, could use some work on not changing the naming convention EVERY TWO SECONDS! If it’s called a “Super-Class” then don’t suddenly start calling it a “Super-Type”! It’s quite infuriating and that’s how wars start!

how JVM work with their non primitive (reference Objects)

Just started and it's really long so it's going to take me a lot of time to finish but boy am I having fun. Coding and trying to understand Java is hard but it's the most interesting thing ever and this book is an absolute masterpiece.

The game is not working !!!!!!!! 😭😭😫😫

I’m making a sink the dot com style game !!!!!
