Course Description
While similar to Java, Kotlin's syntax is not compatible with the ubiquitous language. In this course, you'll learn about the basic syntax of Kotlin, including packages, types, variables, strings, and conditionals.
Learning Objectives
Basic Syntax
- start the course
- specify how to create comments in Kotlin applications
- describe Kotlin packages and how they're implemented
- recall how variables and values are created and used in Kotlin programming
Strings
- define strings and string literals in Kotlin programming
- specify how null safety works in Kotlin programming
- describe string templates and their use in Kotlin programming
- specify different ways to manipulate strings in Kotlin development
Conditionals
- define conditionals and how they're implemented in Kotlin programming
- describe how conditionals are used in Kotlin programming
Practice: Using Kotlin Syntax
- create a basic Kotlin application using comments, variables, and strings
