Description

For undergraduate level courses in Java--Introduction to Programming/CS1, Object-Oriented Programming, and Java--Intermediate Programming in Computer Science, Engineering, and Business programs.

This revised best-seller is designed for a first course in Java or Java as a second language programming, covering JDK 1.4 and JBuilder 9, the latest principles in programming, and core Java features. Covering all the required subjects in the Java Certification Exam, this comprehensive introduction provides an in-depth treatment of object-oriented programming. Easy to read and well-paced, this book is also ideal for self-studies. Its advanced features, such as representative examples and abundant pedagogy, enable students to develop comprehensive programs.

    • Provides students with a comprehensive supplement while still allowing them a text that focuses on the introductory Java subjects.

  • NEW - Reorganized chapters—“Class Inheritance and Interfaces” is now presented in two chapters “Inheritance and Polymorphism” and “Abstract Classes and Inheritance”; “Getting Started with Graphics Programming” is now divided into “Getting Started with GUI Programming” and “Event-Driven Programming” to provide clarity.

    • Facilitates for students ease in understanding the presentation of object-oriented programming.

  • NEW - Instructor's Manual CD—Contains improved interactive slides, twelve exams and keys, supplemental exercises and solutions, and suggested syllabi.

    • Enables instructors to display source code, run programs effectively, and create exams and lectures.

  • NEW - JBuilder is tightly integrated with the book.

    • Allows students to learn to use it effectively to develop Java programs.

    • Allows instructors to customize the text for their particular course.

  • Comprehensive appendices.

    • Provides students with excellent background information, providing an invaluable reference tool.

  • UML graphical notations—Used to describe classes and their relationships throughout the book.

    • Enhances for students the treatment of object-oriented design and programming, and teaches students to use key notation they will use in the real world.

  • Online interactive self-test—Included for each chapter on the author's Web site, www.prenhall.com/liang., with well-designed test questions similar to the Java Certification Exam.

    • Helps students track their progress and evaluate their learning.

  • Extensive examples—Includes a description with the source code, a sample run, and an example review.
