Modern Java 8 to 24 with 10+ Hands-On Coding Assignments

Master Java 8 to 24 features: lambdas, streams, Optionals, switch expressions, pattern matching & more

What you'll learn
- Understand and apply key Java 8 features such as lambdas, functional interfaces, streams, and the Date/Time API.
- Master advanced stream operations, including filtering, mapping, collecting, flatMap, groupingBy, partitioningBy, and stream terminal methods.
- Explore enhancements of Java 9–17 like factory methods (List.of, Map.of), private methods in interfaces, switch expressions, text blocks, and records.
- Learn modern Java features from Java 17–24, including pattern matching, sealed classes, virtual threads, unnamed variables/classes, and updated I/O
- Gain practical experience with modularity (Java 9+), the var keyword (Java 10), and other powerful syntax improvements for cleaner, more efficient code.

Requirements
- Basic understanding of Java syntax and object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts
- Familiarity with writing simple Java programs (classes, methods, loops, etc.)
- JDK (Java Development Kit) installed
- An IDE like IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse
- Curiosity to learn and explore new Java features across multiple versions
