I completed Java Basics. Is this video the next section? It seems like it is not.

When Craig demonstrated JShell, he reviewed things I do not recall seeing in Java basics i.e. "contains", "toLowerCase", "toUpperCase" etc. Did I miss something?

You didn't miss anything. It is the next section. They are just another methods for String class. Names of these are pretty much clear but if you have any doubts you can always check it on your own in documentation

We hopped right into Jshell which is fine, without any opening what Jshell is or where if comes from. After watching the video it is more clear how it works, but I'm having to make a lot of assumptions. Craig is still a great Teacher and goes more in depth than others.

Just like watching a movie at the theaters, just keep trucking and you may find the answer. I google tons while watching these videos, as not everything is explained. Don't worry just keep going.

I agree with you on this one. It appears he's jumped ahead just slightly.
