Gain insights into Java Collections Framework. Delve into lists, sets, and hashmaps. Learn about data modification, sorting, thread-safety, and internal workings for efficient usage.

Collection is one of the most important topics for Java programming. Without the proper knowledge of every collection type in Java, it becomes difficult for you to decide which option to pick in a particular scenario.

This course will give you a great understanding of all collection types available in the Collections Framework like lists, linked lists, sets, and hashmaps. 

After completing this course, you will know how data can be modified within a collection, how to sort a collection, and how it can be made thread-safe. You will also cover the internal working of each Java collection so you can work with them more efficiently.

Collections in Java

You will need a basic understanding of the Java language. This course only covers collections in Java. There were significant changes made in Java 8, and now it is easier to perform certain operations in collections using Java 8 features. Throughout this course, we will show all the examples without using Java 8 features as well as with Java 8 features. So, if you are not comfortable with Java 8, then you can skip the Java 8 examples, but if you are interested, then you can go through a Java 8 [course](https://www.educative.io/courses/java-8-lambdas-stream-api-beyond) first.

Let's look at a quick introduction of this course.
