Ever felt like your Java data is stuck in the wrong format? Imagine you're building a robust application, and suddenly, you need to display a DAY_OF_WEEK enum as a user-friendly string, or perhaps process a dynamic list of items as a streamlined array. These aren't just theoretical scenarios; they're everyday challenges for Java developers. This learning path, 'Learn Java,' is your personal guide to mastering these essential data transformations, turning complex problems into elegant solutions. Designed for beginners, it offers a structured roadmap to conquer OOP concepts, Java syntax, and application development through hands-on, interactive coding exercises. Let's embark on a journey to transform your Java skills, one data type at a time!
How to Convert Enum to String
Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 20 minutes
The enum data type in Java is useful for defining constants such as the days of the week or months of the year. However, sometimes we need to convert these constants to strings. Knowing how to do this is essential for working with APIs and databases.

Convert List to Array
Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 20 minutes
In this lab, we will learn how to convert a List to an array in Java. The List is a linear data structure that stores data, while the array is an indexed data structure that stores similar types of data. We will use the toArray() method of the List interface that returns an array of objects.

Convert Float to String
Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 40 minutes
In Java, there are multiple ways to convert a float to a string. In this lab, we will discuss three different methods of converting Float to String in Java. The three methods that will be covered are: using the valueOf() method of the String class, using the toString() method of the Float class, and using string literals.

How to Convert Stream to an Array
Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 10 minutes
In Java, a stream is a sequence of elements on which we can perform operations in a functional approach. On the other hand, an array is an object that stores a similar type of element. In this lab, we will learn how to convert a stream to an array in Java.
