Closing Statements

Author: Brandon Fajardo (8/1/19)

You’ve made it to the end of these lessons. Congratulations!

What does that mean for the future, though?

Purpose

While these lessons may have provided you a basis in the Java language, the main purpose of these lessons was to spark your interest in programming. We hope that you can see how coding can be interesting for anyone.

These lessons serve as a basis for coding and logic. Understand that these lessons do not, however, prove a mastery of coding or Java.

These lessons focused on practical uses of basic Java, but there are many abstract fundamental concepts that both you and even I have yet to learn.

Moving Forward

That being said, there are so many more amazing things in Java we have yet to learn!

Going onward, many topics may get complex due to how abstract they are.

Other topics may be relatively simple to understand, yet we just didn’t see them fit within this lesson plan. (Maybe one day these new topics will be added to it. Maybe you could be the one to add them.)

If you are interested in continuing to learn about abstract topics, I have made more notes in the same style as these lessons. Look under the "Brandon’s Notes" folder in this Google Drive. They are written as a direct continuation of these lessons, continuing from lesson 12.

Be warned. I put a lot of effort into making these continuation lessons detailed, but not as much effort into making them easy to understand.

Rather than attempting to learn from my lessons directly, I would use the internet to assist in understanding these new topics.

In addition to this, I have written many notes about other topics such as LibGDX, a program used to assist in the creation of video games written in Java. Consider attempting to create a video game yourself in LibGDX!

Good luck with your future endeavors.

Thanks to Peter Genero for this lesson plan and Abhik Ahuja and Sarah Lee for assistance in developing it.
