Think Like a Programmer

Java is the backbone of modern enterprise software, and mastering its logic is the first step toward becoming a professional developer. This book offers a selection of curated questions, ranging from foundational topics to advanced programming concepts.

The book begins with simple loops like for, while, and do-while before tackling file operations, logging, and I/O exceptions. Each chapter focuses on solving problems within a specific area of programming, allowing readers to practice, analyze, and upskill. The difficulty progressively increases as the readers learn to solve problems using basic data structures, arithmetic, and regular expressions. Finally, the book covers topics like data sorting, graphics, and complex data structures.

By the end of this book, you will be competent in applying decision constructs to diverse programming challenges and possess a solid understanding of algorithmic efficiency. Through hands-on experience and real-world problems, this book ensures that learners develop the problem-solving skills necessary for success as a software developer.
