    This is a good beginner course for learning Java. While it doesn’t teach you everything, it teaches you enough so that you can make some really simply things on your own (you “make” a game at the end of the course, well, you write how to make the computer know someone won in tic tac toe.)

    Still, it’s just a good course, not perfect. I found it to be rather simply and lacking in certain parts and something that bothered me is that the quizzes where multiple choice most of the time. I think it’s a lot better to have someone write code several times so they remember it, instead of having them click one of four answers.

    They do have some exercises at the end of the first 4 lessons, which help quite a bit. I feel like I learned a lot with this course, but that’s mostly because I added parts to the tasks we were given. Instead of just doing what the task required, I would add one simply thing to it and see if it worked.

    There is also the part that most of the code that you write in the Udacity site, lacks some parts, so if you try to do it in Notepad or any editor you have, it won’t work. For example, they never wrote the main method (by that I mean: public static void main (String [] args)) nor do they explain what it is.

    The lesson about loops is quite repetitive, so at the time I skipped a lot of it, but I will probably go back to it again later, to see if I still get it (I’m not quite sure at which point i gets +1 added to it in a loop.)

    Anyways, it’s a good beginner course, somewhat short, but that may be what you are looking for.

    Course gives a good introduction for the Java programming language. I felt that the exercises should be more difficult giving more emphasis on coding rather than multiple choice questions.

    A very easy approach of Java, just for the syntax of it, not for object oriented. It does have only small examples of code, not something particular.

    It is a course about java. It is a course for beginners, even beginners programmers. If you have never programmed, you can follow this course.
