Hey

So over on Youtube someone asked me about doing exponents in Java. I didn’t talk about this in episode 3 of my Java tutorial, so I have created a short supplementary  video looking at some of the more advanced mathematical functions in Java. Short, and to the point. Here it is:

Hi Everyone

Just a quick note to say that I’ve put all the Java video tutorials up on Youtube. Things have changed since I started making the videos – Youtube has finally allowed videos longer than 15 minutes, which means I can upload them without having to slice them all up.

This video looks at how we can use the OpenGL graphics library in our Java programs. This video was an entry in a competition on 3dbuzz.com. As such, it doesn’t flow on from the previous videos, just consider it a bonus. (more…)

This video gives an overview of the Eclipse IDE. Eclipse is a feature packed Java development environment that is also free and open source. In this video we see how we create projects in eclipse and run our programs. (more…)

Our first look at a data structure – arrays. First we talk about what arrays are, then explain how we can use them with loops to do something useful. We also have a look at the String[] argument to the main method. (more…)

Our first look at objects in Java. There is a lot to cover, so in this video we focus on strings, and how we use methods to manipulate them. (more…)

This video introduces looping. For, While and Do While loops are covered. Finally, a simple way to do repetitive tasks. (more…)

This video looks at control structures. Specifically, if/else blocks and switch blocks. By the end of it you will be able to write programs that make decisions on what to do. (more…)

In this video we look at arithmetic operators, enabling us to do some calculations in our programs. (more…)

This video introduces you to the primitive datatypes in available in Java. We also look at variables to show how we can store data. (more…)
