This is great!
I tried to learn Java from a book, but it was so complicated.
Now I’m learning very much!
You are great!
Fantastic tutorial!

Whew! Your explanations are so clear. I’ve been staring at these same words (int, char, double etc) in books and even in other online tutorials (even from Sun) and I’ve been at sea! You bring Java alive and make it lucid. Thank you!

Hi Kendal
I’ve read every comment that’s been posted on here, so don’t worry. I’m working on a bit of a big project at the moment, but can’t give out too many details.
Thanks for the feedback!

dude this is exactly what were doing in first year object base programming
the exact same material you are teaching in the same order
thanks a lot its like having a tutor for my classes

Hey
Yep, to begin with, most places would teach java in the same order. You need to know how to print stuff, You need to know about variables, you need to know about conditionals, looping, and arrays, more or less in that order.
Glad you like the videos!

Again great tutorial!
Quick trick for mental math of 11 times any two digit number: add the two digits from the non-11 number together and “insert” the result in the middle of the two digits.
11 * 24 = 2 (2+4=6) 4 , so 11 * 24 = 264
11 * 17 = 1 (1+7=8) 7 , so 11 * 17 = 187
For numbers whose addition together will be more than 10 it gets a bit trickier, but still possible…
11 * 87 = 8 (8+7=15) 7 = 8(+1) 5 7 , the 5 goes in between 8 and 7 and you add 1 to the number on the left (8 in this case), so 11 * 87 = 957.
Finally, 11 * 12 = 1 (1+2=3) 2, so 11 * 12 = 132!
Thanks again for the great vids.
