Why is Java recommended for tertiary school students?

Java is an easy Object-Oriented Programming Language with high readability and is widely used by tertiary educators for maths exercises due to its simplicity and clear structure.

What math concepts are covered in the Java tutorials?

The tertiary section covers core arithmetic topics including listing odd/even numbers, checking for primeness, finding prime numbers, listing factors, Highest Common Factor (HCF), and Lowest Common Multiple (LCM).

Do I need to install software to run the Java code?

Yes, to run and practice the code examples, you will need to install the Java SE (Standard Edition) Development Kit on your computer.

Java Programming for Tertiary Students

Tertiary-Level Factors to Consider About the Java Programming Language

Java is a very easy Object Oriented Programming Language that was born from the C language.
Many tertiary educators use Java for maths exercises because of its simplicity and readability.

Java is an interpreted language that runs on a virtual machine.
Java is compiled into Java Byte Code and interpreted at runtime by the Java Virtual Machine.
This means Java is very portable and its already compiled code can run fairly on any machine.

Uses of Java ranges from light-weight modules to very heavy-weight applications, Web-building and Graphics, and Gaming.

Note: Java requires the installation of Java SE.

Simple Java Math Programming: Learn Math with Java Code

Java is a remarkably powerful and easy-to-learn language, making it the ideal choice for tertiary school programming. Many educators have discovered that using Java programming for tertiary students is the most effective way to transition them from abstract mathematical theory to practical application. This section is specifically designed to make coding for tertiary students accessible and engaging, providing a foundation that seamlessly integrates digital literacy with core arithmetic skills. We use Java because its simplicity and readability make complex math exercises—like finding prime factors or calculating the Highest Common Factor (HCF) — easy for young minds to follow and implement.

In this tertiary section, we have written all our maths educational exercises and demonstrations in Java.
