Why can't we access the exercise files exposed in the Java Complete Programming course?

I understand that it is not really complete material, but I miss the logic of the exercises with incomplete material to study.
Is it possible to release the files of the exercises in class?

Same problem here, can't find the e-kit files which contain exercises that are mentioned in the course.
Can this be provided?

Same problem, can't find a way to download the complete eKit for the course.
-
i just called the hotline and they said there is no way to get this file for free, its bound to the premium subscription.
-
If you look at the top of the screen in the navigator there is a "Student Guides" tab. I've also included the URL below:
https://learning.oracle.com/player/play?in_sessionid=J45509825495A91J&classroom_id=113880473

Have someone find the way to get that file ? i mean this one "D107120GC10_ag.pdf"
-
I asked directly via e-mail for this problem, the response:
In short, we need to found another way to practice... 😔
-
I answered the question above. You need to read the answers.
-
In the "Students Guides" tab i have only this item:
These are the slides that are used by the instructor during the course... Nothing less, nothing more...
-
That's the guide with the practices and lessons.
-
No, exercise files are contained in a "eKit" folder accessible only by premium subscribers and not the free ones. Did you followed the "JAVA SE: Programming Complete" course? For example module "1 . Introduction to Java", at the end of this module there are 2 vids: "Practice 1-1: Verify the JDK Installation" and "Practice 1-2: Create, Compile, and Execute a Java Application", in these vids the instructor use the "eKit" folder that contains a .pdf with the exercises per module, sources, solutions etc.

I just sent a less than glowing feedback from within the training itself. That might at least get the trainer's attention. What a waste of time AND trust!!!
-
Same here I'm trying to look for it but no success :( Anyway it's free, i just continue viewing the lessons.
-
Got nearly the same answer. Please, direct msg me if you find something. Thanks.
-
If anyone is able to get the material please let us know. What Oracle is doing is unjust especially because we are planning to pay for this exam. It seems like they are setting us for failure.
-
I agree with User_T5DP2.
It's ridiculous not being able to work with the same guide the trainer in the video is using.
The student guide provided is NOT the same shown in the video.
Also it's not possible to compare own solutions with the solutions of the trainer because there's no download of the ekit.
Maybe some of you know a former trainee that has all of this for us?
-
I am having the same problem. I don't even need access to the lab. But including the PDF the trainer is using under the "Student Guide" tab would help a lot. This way you could prepare your own solution before watching the trainer's solution just like in the Java Explorer course. Also wrote this in my Feedback. Hopefully Oracle will do something about it.
-
Hi,
I don't completely agree. I almost completed the course using the videos of the instructor. But you have to type over everything instead of what the instructor does, copy and pasting the code. Having a typing diploma helps...
The only thing that I miss is the CSV files to bulkload the products in a later lesson. But I created a subset by transforming the products from earlier excercises into CSV files.
-
I'm not sure I'm allowed to. I hope that Oracle friendly instructs me if I go over the line.
But I posted my lab files here: https://github.com/makker-nl/ou25th-java11-labs.
Here and there I deviated a bit from the instructions, because I'm a stubborn Dutch guy... ;)
-
Thx for uploading!
Still the issue is not solved by Oracle.
Offering a course for free doesn't have to result in changing the offered content, being downgraded to a "minor worth" user.
I've asked the trainer, for sending us the pdf, via linkedin ... waiting for a reply...
I'll let you guys know, respectively upload it!
happy eastern 😋

Martien,
We like stubborn Dutch guys! Thanks...
I believe most of us stopped after we were an hour into the training realizing we were missing files. After hunting and finding we'd have to slog through the class without them, most likely moved unto to other training resources. It's good to know that as long as we can type quickly this class is doable with reasonable effort!
Cheers,
Erik

Hi Erik and others,
Yes indeed, I found it quite doable. Had quite some fun with it. However, there is one aspect where my solutions didn't match that of the instructor.
I think it was in Ch 9 you are to make the Products reviewable. And this is done in an immutable way: by adding a review you re-create the product, remove the old one from the map, and add the new one.
However, in Ch 13 you refactor the lot to have the data bulk loaded from files. I created the CSV files by transforming the earlier examples into CSV files. So I only have 6, instead of the 64 from the resources. The loading is done using streams and there for the Maps should be immutable during the processing of the stream. You should not add or remove products from the map. So my solution from Ch13 does not show stars for the products when running. But the video shows that the instructor's solution does show stars.
I reviewed my solutions several times against the video, thought it through over and over again, and concluded that it is logical that my solution didn't show the stars. And that the instructor's shouldn't either.
So, if anyone could point where my code misses something and how this should be implemented in a way that conforms to the statements in the lessons, I would appreciate it sincerely. I think it could be done by setting the rating during adding the reviews, but then the rating attribute of the product should be made mutable. And that is against earlier statements.
Kind regards,
Martien
