Java for Students / Edition 3

Overview

This concise book adopts a visual approach to programming— programs that use graphical images are emphasized throughout to clearly demonstrate all the important programming principles. The authors have been careful to put together a book that covers the powerful features of Java and presents the language to readers as both a fun and useful tool. The authors use a spiral approach to programming concepts; introducing concepts simply early on, then in a more sophisticated way later, (e.g., objects are integrated throughout five chapters).Java for Students emphasizes the use of applets but also shows how to program free-standing applications. There is increased coverage of Swing and a new chapter on Polymorphism — a topic that is key to object orientation. UML is used for all object-oriented diagrams, which helps educates readers about this standard notation used in the real world for developing object-oriented programs. For use by professionals in the fields of computer science, engineering and business whom wish to gain an introduction to Java.
