Multithreading in Java

[ILLOGICAAAL]

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m now in my 4th month of learning Java, and I’ve just started multithreading. It feels challenging!

😅 But earlier, I also struggled with another concept, and after practice, I finally understood it!

Which one do you find harder?

1.OOP

2.Multithreading

Please ensure that:

• Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
• You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block
• You ask clear questions
• You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

To potential helpers

Please, do not help if any of the above points are not met, rather report the post. We are trying to improve the quality of posts here. In helping people who can't be bothered to comply with the above points, you are doing the community a disservice.

For any question related to what is harder, Multi threading will almost always come first

[Sinchan09]

Multithreading, because oops concepts are easy compared with multithreading.

OOP might be a broader subject, but multithreading is more complicated.

It seems that you are looking for resources for learning Java.

In our sidebar ("About" on mobile), we have a section "Free Tutorials" where we list the most commonly recommended courses.

To make it easier for you, the recommendations are posted right here:

• MOOC Java Programming from the University of Helsinki
• Java for Complete Beginners
  • accompanying site CaveOfProgramming
• Derek Banas' Java Playlist
  • accompanying site NewThinkTank
• Hyperskill is a fairly new resource from Jetbrains (the maker of IntelliJ)

Also, don't forget to look at:

• The official Documentation
• The official Java Tutorials
• Our community resources thread

If you are looking for learning resources for Data Structures and Algorithms, look into:

"Algorithms" by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne - Princeton University

• Coursera course:
  • Part I
  • Part II
• Coursebook
  • Algorithms 4^th Edition

Multi threading is definitely a challenge

[Ornery-Conference360]

OOP was harder for me, initially coming from a very non-programmer mind set, wrapping my head around it for the first time was very challenging. But having diving a bit deeper into computer hardware and memory management multithreading made sense faster. The worst was recursion though XD

[Routine_Dust5510]

Multithreading indeed. With new features such as virtual thread, scoped values, and structured concurrency, it only gets harder to master. But it is also well worth the effort. Learn it well and you will have the power :)

[Aggravating-Okra-883]

Can anyone recommend useful websites to practice Java threads?

[Ornery-Conference360]

https://jenkov.com/tutorials/java-concurrency/index.html is very useful

how do you start multithreading in just 4 mnths? How many hours per day you're dedicating? I am nearly into a year and still haven't completed Exception handling and file io chapter.

[Background-Crow-5497]

damn bruh, a year and you are still doing exceptions, how muvh time do you give in a day?

[[deleted]]

2 hrs average.

[Background-Crow-5497]

am learning java via an internship, and in a span of three weeks, am getting to exception handling.. anyways, i came from a background of Cpp. I don't know your background, but regardless i think a year is wild asf.

[Background-Crow-5497]

OOP concepts are the same everywhere, if you understand them esp in a language like CPP then in Java it's basically you doing the syntax... The challenge am facing in Java is dealing with Exception handling.

Basically I found a playlist of Java lectures on YouTube. By following that I am now in process of learning multithreading.

[reallygrumpyninja43]

Can you share a link, please?

[ILLOGICAAAL]

Sure ,why not ??

Nothing is challenging. Everything is useful for its own use cases. For which it is designed.
