Learn Programming in Java - Lesson 17: File Input/Output

In this lesson we cover how to read data from and write data to files. We'll discuss the two common file formats, text and binary and how to perform basic file operations on them. We will learn object serialization and de-serialization techniques to make our objects persistent and read and write collections of objects to/from disk.
