CMSY-217 Java III - Advanced

This course builds on the foundations from Java II-Intermediate and expands the coverage to more advanced topics. Topics include recursion, searching and sorting algorithms, data structures, Java Collections Framework, Generics, multithreading, network programming, Java Database Connectivity (JDBC), and Servlets/JSP. The Java 2D API and Swing Toolkit will also be presented.
