Explore control structures such as conditional statements (if-else, switch), loops (for, while, do-while, nested loops), and flow control with break and continue statements. Dive into object-oriented programming principles by learning about classes, objects, constructors, the 'this' keyword, static methods, and inner classes. Work with arrays including 1D, 2D, and jagged arrays, enhanced for loops, and varargs for flexible parameter handling. Advance to core OOP concepts including inheritance, the super keyword, method overriding and overloading, dynamic method dispatch, encapsulation, wrapper classes, abstract classes, and the final keyword. Understand interfaces, anonymous inner classes, lambda expressions, and functional programming concepts. Learn about packages, access modifiers, and exception handling with try-catch-finally blocks, multiple catch statements, and user-defined exceptions. Explore multithreading concepts including Thread class, Runnable interface, thread synchronization, priority management, and thread safety. Master Java collections framework and generics including List, Set, and Map interfaces, Iterator patterns, Comparator and Comparable interfaces, and the Collections utility class. Conclude with modern Java features including var keyword (Java 10), enhanced switch expressions, record classes (Java 17), and sealed classes (Java 17).
