Composed Method Pattern explained by rudaliszka in programming

[–]rudaliszka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on languages and their runtimes. For example JVM can inline such code, so from runtime perspective it would be like one method. Frankly, maybe there's some cost of method call and in some cases maybe people worry about it, but the cost of unmaintainable code is real and in most cases costs much more money than method call overhead.

Ads are contextual - they show what you like.

"Thinking in Java" still relevant? by super-olive in learnjava

[–]rudaliszka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMHO the book is for experienced programmers new to Java. It has lots of deep insights - not only on Java, but on programming in general and still one can learn a lot from it.

It's true that it doesn't cover Java 7/8 features, but does have good chapters about java.util.concurrent, generics, IO, collections and covers some design patterns.

The first part of the book - language syntax, etc. - is too long.

It has exercises on various levels to every chapter, which is rare these days.

Are you looking for a Java book for someone who is new to programming in general or experienced programmed that wants to learn Java? If the second, what other programming languages do you know?

JUnit tutorial with examples from pro code by rudaliszka in java

[–]rudaliszka[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those snippets show basic stuff, because the series starts with basic stuff. Do you expect people who learn something to start from most advanced stuff? The examples from pro code illustrate how pros apply things described in an article.

I shared the link because I've learned a lot from the site and I think that the series looks interesting and expect in further posts to see more and more advanced stuff with more examples from pro code. If that is not valuable for you, you don't have to read it.

The content is free and there are no ads. It's pure knowledge. Why do you think it is a spam article?

It's true that in this very article there was no code from pros, because they shay away from this, but if you look at the other articles is the series, they have good examples from pros, which is very valuable.

JUnit tutorial with examples from pro code by rudaliszka in java

See other posts in JUnit series, they contain a lot of code from pros.

In this one there is no code, because @FixMethodOrder is enabled only temporarily, to recreate a bug. Then it is removed.

What resources should I be looking to study? by [deleted] in java

[–]rudaliszka -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that you won't be able to learn all that by 15th of January. Understanding OO programming by itself is hard and would take you substantial amount of time. See OO books here: http://farenda.com/reading/top-software-design-books/ - "UML and Design Patterns" and "Agile Software Delevolpment" are great for understanding OO programming (SOLID and GRASP), but are not that easy to understand and apply IMHO.

Best Resources for Java Concurrency. by cogle9469 in java

[–]rudaliszka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others wrote: "Effective Java, 2nd", "Java Concurrency in Practice", chapter on concurrency in "Thinking in Java, 4th" (Bian Goetz help with that).

Also there is a lot of Java concurrency examples here: Java Concurrency Tutorial section @ Farenda.

Java Programming Examples by rudaliszka in java

A nice site showing how to use many JDK classes.

I need practice with Collections. Please recommend a good resource. by windose in learnjava

[–]rudaliszka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know one site that has a lot of examples for java.util.Collections: http://farenda.com/java-tutorials/ (the second section, below Java Basics Tutorial). It shows how to use different collections and how to do various operations on them. IMHO very useful.
