Features

Step-by-step tutorial approach.
- Teaches students Java from the ground up, and builds upon their understanding of previously learned concepts to introduce new programming features.

Application-Driven™ methodology.
- Exciting and motivational real-world applications have been selected so that students, in working through their creation and implementation, learn the fundamentals of programming.

Deitel™ signature LIVE-CODE™ Approach.
- Students learn programming by working through and “doing” many examples. This process reinforces and solidifies important programming concepts and fundamentals.

Use of code highlighting.
- Emphasizes key portions of the source-code listings in the text with a yellow background to illustrate key concepts.

Student-friendly presentation—Features excellent selection of motivational and dynamic tutorials, explanations, graphics, and full color throughout.
- Helps students grasp key content in every step of the learning process, and provides them with line numbers for easy reference in every sample program.

Debugging sections and exercises.
- Teaches students the Java command line debugger.

Seven icon-based tip categories—Includes Good Programming Practices; Software Design Tips; Common Programming Errors; GUI Design Tips; and Error-Prevention Tips.
- Offers students practical advice and suggestions to enhance and accelerate their learning.

UML activity diagrams.
- Replaces flowcharts which are less effective pedagogically and outdated by industry standards.

Self-review multiple-choice questions and answers.
- Provides students with immediate feedback after each section.

Glossary (“key terms”) at the end of each tutorial.
- Allows students to quickly look up important terms and definitions.

Many end of tutorial exercises and projects, including one “programming challenge.”
- Allows students to assess and test their mastery of the content. The “programming challenge” is optional and can be assigned to those students seeking a further challenge.
