This course teaches how to create groupings of objects using collections and how to use generics to assign some type safety to those collections. The course covers the four major categories of collections, type safety and type erasure, sorting and searching in collections and arrays, and the use of polymorphism with generics.
Objectives:
Describe how to use sets, maps, lists and queues
Describe how to sort and search collections and arrays
Describe how to use generics for compile-time type safety
Describe how to mix legacy code with generic code
Topics:
