Java Fundamentals for Android Training Course

Duration

14 hours (usually 2 days including breaks)

Requirements

None

Overview

Applications for the Android platform are developed primarily in Java. This course was developed for software programmers with a strong OOP background (whether in PHP, Scala, C++, C# or Objective C) that plan to learn how to develop Java applications for the android platform. This course covers the Java programming language grammar and focuses on those specific Java capabilities the android platform uses more than others.
