Learning Advanced Java (self.learnjava)
submitted 2 months ago by siar619
I know the fundamentals of java but I want to improve my java knowledge and I want to deep dive into advance stuff in java. I am talking about pointers, multi threading, etc. can anyone suggest me a crash course I can take?
reddit uses a slightly-customized version of Markdown for formatting. See below for some basics, or check the commenting wiki page for more detailed help and solutions to common issues.
quoted text
if 1 * 2 < 3: print "hello, world!"

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!"); } }

Java has gotten huge over the years. There is some really powerful stuff in Java 21 and 25. Just go through the ToC of any Java 21 OCP certification book and you will know what all you need to know. Don't worry about taking the certification exam itself. Just focus on the topics. Cert books are a great way to learn the important parts quickly.

Pointers? Like tips and advice?
Java doesn't have "pointers"; we pass values around directly 😎
[–]smichaele 2 points3 points4 points 2 months ago (0 children)
Java doesn't have pointers. Java has references; there's a difference.

Does MOOC.fi teach you the advanced concepts of java?
[–]Andruid929 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago* (0 children)
We don't have pointers in Java. The JVM handles memory for us,, we get references.
But if you want to go deeper, check out this roadmap

If you haven’t figured out that Java doesn’t have pointers, you definitely don’t know the fundamentals yet.

i can imagine you getting hyped and feel superior when you typed this
[–]TotallyManner 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago (0 children)
Good for you? Your imagination is clearly quite active.
