## 🎯 Tasks

In this project, you will learn:

- How to add a property to the `Course` entity class to represent the course property (Boolean `cProperties`, where `true` represents a required course and `false` represents an elective course)
- How to create a custom type handler to convert between Boolean and Integer values
- How to register the custom type handler in the MyBatis configuration file
- How to update the course table and the `CourseMapper` to use the new `cProperties` field
- How to use the custom type handler to update the course information in the database

## 🏆 Achievements

After completing this project, you will be able to:

- Extend the `BaseTypeHandler` class to create a custom type handler
- Register a custom type handler in the MyBatis configuration file
- Update the database schema and the corresponding mapper file to use a custom field
- Use the custom type handler to update data in the database
