🚀 Java Core to Advanced

A structured, step-by-step roadmap to master Java from fundamentals to advanced Data Structures & Algorithms — with clean implementations and interview-focused practice.

👋 Who Is This For?

✔ Beginners starting Java
✔ Students preparing for placements
✔ Developers strengthening fundamentals
✔ Interview preparation
✔ Anyone who prefers structured learning

This is not random code.
This is organized progression.

Each folder contains:

  • Clean Java implementations
  • Proper comments
  • Structured naming (PascalCase)
  • Practice problems
  • Progressive difficulty

🧪 Sample Code

Check Even or Odd (Bitwise)

public static boolean isEven(int num) {
    return (num & 1) == 0;
}

Get i-th Bit

public static int getIthBit(int num, int i) {
    return (num >> i) & 1;
}

🛠 How To Use

1️⃣ Clone Repository

git clone https://github.com/PavithraSharma14/java-core-to-advanced.git
cd java-core-to-advanced

2️⃣ Open in IDE

Recommended:

  • IntelliJ IDEA
  • VS Code
  • Eclipse

3️⃣ Follow the Roadmap Order

Start from:

01-basics → move sequentially

Do not skip complexity + recursion before advanced topics.

📈 Progress Tracker

Stage Topic Status
1 Basics ✅ Completed
2 OOP ✅ Completed
3 Time & Space ⏳ Planned
4 Recursion ⏳ Planned
5 DSA ⏳ In Progress

🎯 Learning Strategy

To maximize results:

  1. Read the concept
  2. Run the code
  3. Modify it
  4. Solve practice problems
  5. Re-implement without looking
  6. Track your complexity

Consistency > Speed
Structure > Random Learning

💼 Why This Repository Stands Out

  • Structured learning path
  • Interview-focused progression
  • Clean naming conventions
  • Progressive module system
  • Covers fundamentals to advanced DSA

🤝 Contributing

Contributions are welcome.

Guidelines:

  • Follow folder structure
  • Maintain clean code
  • Use PascalCase for file names
  • Add meaningful comments
  • Keep logic readable
