Java Concepts

Cay Horstmann9780470112106, 0470112107

This text uses Java to describe programming concepts, taking full advantage of Java’s simpler and more consistent syntax. Its traditional approach uses modern CS tools including a strategic subset of Java and a simple object-oriented graphics library. The text teaches Java as a first programming language and distills it down to a core of fundamental data types, structures and syntax. It presents Java in a leaner and more practical fashion with a subset covering basic types, stream input and output, the “string” class, branches and loops, functions, parameter passing and classes. The book includes a style guide (available in electronic format) and details common student programming mistakes. The library for the book contains a base class from which students can derive their own applets without having to learn a complex event-handling model. An appendix brings students up to speed in ANSI C++ from Java.
