When developing with Java, you can perform many different operation types on the data in your Java program. The goal of this course is to give you hands-on experience with these operations.
Begin by working with the basic math operations that apply to numeric data, such as addition, division, and so on, recognizing how these apply to different numeric types. Use logical and comparison operators, which allow you to evaluate a condition and check the relationship between different variables.
Lastly, implement string operations in Java and explore some of the methods used to transform data from one type to another. When you're finished with this course, you'll be able to perform a variety of operations on your Java program data.
