Java Capstone Series Pt. 1 (OpenHPI)

Java Capstone Series Pt. 1 (OpenHPI)

The Java Capstone Series is a completely new course format. Fewer videos and more hands-on activities. Together, we will develop small Java projects from scratch to transform knowledge into competencies. For the first iteration we will develop a little game, e.g. Pong or BreakOut. The idea is to work on these projects in teams, but if you prefer you can also work alone. This format is completely new for us as well. We see ourselves rather as co-learners and facilitators than as teachers.

Until the course will officially start in mid-September, we have prepared a short survey consisting of basically just one question: What do you expect from this course? Topics, approaches, tools, tasks,...
We will certainly not be able to integrate the complete wish-list in this first iteration of the course, but we hope that further iterations will follow, so that we will be able to cover many of them sooner or later.
The prerequisite for this course is a basic understanding of the Java programming language concepts.
You should have successfully completed one of the Java courses on our platforms Object-Oriented Programming in Java or have a similar body of knowledge.

Computer Science: Algorithms, Theory, and Machines (Coursera)

This course introduces the broader discipline of computer science to people having basic familiarity with Java programming. It covers the second half of our book Computer Science: An Interdisciplinary Approach (the first half is covered in our Coursera course Computer Science: Programming with a Purpose, to be released in the fall of 2018). Our intent is to demystify computation and to build awareness about the substantial intellectual underpinnings and rich history of the field of computer science.

Principles of Computing (Part 2) (Coursera)

This two-part course introduces the basic mathematical and programming principles that underlie much of Computer Science. Understanding these principles is crucial to the process of creating efficient and well-structured solutions for computational problems. To get hands-on experience working with these concepts, we will use the Python programming language. The main focus of the class will be weekly mini-projects that build upon the mathematical and programming principles that are taught in the class.

Java Workshop - Einführung in die Testgetriebene Entwicklung mit JUnit (openHPI)

Probieren ist gut, testen ist besser. In der Regel weiss man, was ein Programm tun soll bevor man es schreibt. Warum nicht gleich die Bedingungen nach denen es funktionieren soll in Code fassen, der überprüft ob die Vorgaben auch erfüllt werden? Um dies zu tun gibt es eine Reihe spezialisierter Frameworks die das auf verschiedene Weisen sicher stellen. In diesem Workshop wollen wir uns auf das Unit Testing mit JUnit konzentrieren. Unter Unit Tests versteht man Tests die kleine abgeschlossene Code-Einheiten, wie z.B. Klassen oder Methoden auf korrekte Funktionalität prüfen.

Introducción a Java (Coursera)

Me llamo Elisa Viso y una de mis pasiones es la de programar y enseñar a programar. El lenguaje Java es uno de los que más me ha gustado en mis 45 años que llevo programando. Si bien te podrá parecer un poco complicado empezar a programar en Java, una vez que cubras los conceptos básicos verás qué rápido se avanza. Java, como todos los lenguajes de programación bien hechos, te dejan hacer cualquier cosa (algunas de ellas con más trabajo que en otros lenguajes y otras casi directamente de cómo piensas la solución al problema).

Du hast bereits den Java-Kurs auf openHPI gemacht und die Einführung in Collections war dir zu schnell oder nicht detailliert genug? Du willst Datenstrukturen in Java besser kennenlernen? Du wolltest immer schon mal wissen, was eigentlich Iteratoren sind und welche Vorteile diese gegenüber von Schleifen haben? Welche Datenstrukturen für welche Anwendungsfälle schneller oder besser geeignet sind? Auch Duke und seinen neuen Assistenten Big O beschäftigen diese Fragen in ihrem aktuellen Fall und sie brauchen wieder mal Deine Hilfe! Begleite Duke und seine Freunde auf ihrer spannenden Reise durch die wunderbare Welt der Algorithmen und Datenstrukturen in Java. Spoiler: mehr Drama, mehr Action und höchstens ein Papagei.
