Description

Groovy Intro The course starts with an introduction to the basic features of Groovy and covers dynamic typing and type inference in Groovy. It is discussed how Groovy differs from Java with much less boilerplate code and support for scripting. Language Syntax and Data Structures Next the Groovy language syntax with variables, data types, conditionals, operators and loops is covered. Groovy data structures like lists, maps and sets are also treated and also how Groovy uses the Java Collection Framework. Methods and Closures Groovy methods, parameters passing and closures are also part of the course program. Groovy closures are anonymous code blocks that, as function objects with the scope in which they are created, are stored to be executed at a later time, with or without additional parameters. Classes and Traits And just like Java, Groovy is an object-oriented language and attention is paid to how you use classes, constructors, fields, interfaces and traits in Groovy. XML and JSON File I/O is on the program of the course as well and in that context the commonly used data formats XML and JSON are treated and how Groovy deals with them.
