Duke University

Java Programming: Arrays, Lists, and Structured Data

Duke University via Coursera

Overview

Build on the software engineering skills you learned in “Java Programming: Solving Problems with Software” by learning new data structures. Use these data structures to build more complex programs that use Java’s object-oriented features. At the end of the course you will write an encryption program and a program to break your encryption algorithm.

After completing this course, you will be able to:
1. Read and write data from/to files;
2. Solve problems involving data files;
3. Perform quantitative analyses of data (e.g., finding maximums, minimums, averages);
4. Store and manipulate data in an array or ArrayList;
5. Combine multiple classes to solve larger problems;
6. Use iterables and collections (including maps) in Java.

  • Krisztian Toth completed this course, spending 8 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be medium.

    A good beginner course with mostly focusing on manipulating Strings. During the course the usage of ArrayList and HashMap are introduced. The topic of assignments and project are funny but in contrast to their previous course in the specialization are not close to real-world problems.
