The Intermediate Kotlin course delves into advanced Kotlin programming concepts, offering a comprehensive understanding to students. It begins with a quick recap of Kotlin basics before delving into topics such as top-level functions, high-order functions, and operator overloading. Additionally, learners explore Lambdas, external functions and properties, and exception handling.
The course also covers integrating Kotlin with Java, Kotlin Android extensions, KTX, and various platform types. Through interactive labs and lectures, participants gain practical experience and deepen their Kotlin proficiency. Prior knowledge of Kotlin is required, as the course builds upon the foundational “Introduction to Kotlin” course, making it unsuitable for beginners.
After this course, you will be able to:
- Write complex Kotlin programs
- leverage Kotlins top-level and high-order functions
- Call Java code from Kotlin and vice versa
- Perform testing in Kotlin
