Java Tutorial
What is Java?
Java is a high-level, class-based, object-oriented programming language designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It follows the "Write Once, Run Anywhere" principle — compiled Java code runs on any platform that supports the JVM without recompilation.
Our tutorial covers everything from basics to modern Java — including OOP, Collections, Streams, Multithreading, Generics, Design Patterns, Modern Java 8–21, and more.

Collections Framework
The Java Collections Framework provides ready-made data structures — List, Set, Map, Queue, and more. Understanding when and how to use each collection is a core Java skill.

- ›HashSet
- ›LinkedHashSet
- ›TreeSet
- ›Queue
- ›PriorityQueue
- ›Deque
- ›ArrayDeque

Generics
Generics allow you to write type-safe, reusable code. Learn how to parameterize classes and methods, understand wildcards, and avoid ClassCastExceptions at runtime.
- ›Generics Overview
- ›Why Generics?
- ›Generic Classes
- ›Generic Interfaces
- ›Generic Methods
- ›Bounded Type Parameters
- ›Wildcards (?)
- ›Upper-Bounded Wildcards (? extends)
- ›Lower-Bounded Wildcards (? super)
- ›Generics in the Collections Framework
- ›Type Inference (Diamond Operator)
- ›Type Erasure
