Java 9 and Java 10: The Key Parts - Venkat Subramaniam
Description changed:
Join the LJC on Tuesday 8th May where we are pleased to welcome Venkat Subramaniam who will be discussing Java 9 and Java 10: The Key Parts.
Talk Details:
We can look at the feature of Java 9 and 10 into three parts: improvements, additions, and advances. In this presentation we'll focus more on parts other than modules. We will take a look at improvements and additions in the language and the JDK that are not only exiting but also quite useful for everyday programming.
We will discuss the key features of Java 9 and the advances in Java 10 as well. This presentation will take an example driven approach with live coding to illustrate the concepts and their benefits.
