Programming in Kotlin: Fundamentals

Congratulations on finishing the entire Programming in Kotlin: Fundamentals course! :]

At this point, you have a firm understanding of the basics of programming in Kotlin. You’re ready to take what you’ve learned, and bring your app-making skills to the next level.

But before you go pursue other courses and your awesome career as a Kotlin or Android developer, let’s revise all the amazing things you’ve learned so far! :]

You’ve learned how to operate on data types, and how to transform them to other types, such as from an Int to a String.

You used values in combintation with operators to create powerful flow of control with if/else statements.

You also learned how to manage the flow using different types of loops.

You learned that sometimes your variable or constant might not have any value in the nullablity section. You also learned how to use nullable type and safe ways to access them in order to prevent the billion dollar mistake.

You then proceeded to create your own functions with default parameters and named arguments.

All of these concepts are visible here, and they’ll be super useful to you for the rest of your development career!

After this course, you should go watch the Programming in Kotlin: Collections & Lambdas course in our Android Learning Path to continue on with more Kotlin concepts!

In that course you’ll learn about how you can work with collections of data and an advanced type of function: higher order function.

Thanks for learning with me in this introduction to Kotlin fundamentals course. I look forward to seeing you in the next course. Take care!
