Lesson 3 Problem Set

Welcome to the Intro to Java: Functional Programming, Lesson 3 problem set! These problem sets are an opportunity for you to practice the concepts you learned in class before moving on to the next lesson. Learning a computer programming language is similar to learning a human language. Nobody can pick it up overnight, there's a lot of vocabulary and syntax to remember. Language learners often speak of the moment when they realized they stopped translating in their head and actually started thinking in their second language. This will happen with Java too! Eventually, you will be able to consider a task that needs coding and immediately imagine what Java code would complete it. To get there, though, requires practice.

That's where the problem sets come in. They aren't mandatory, and they aren't graded. They're just extra learning materials to help you along.
