Features
|
- Teaches interface declarations at the same time as class declarations
- Suggests that each class should have methods called equals, hashCode, compareTo (if appropriate), toString and a constructor for cloning.
- Demonstrates how to provide a Java program with user interfaces involving components such as buttons, textfields, dialog boxes and menus (using the Swing API).
- Uses the Collections API in preference to teaching the student to implement the code for the classic data structures.
- Uses the www pages that document the Core APIs.
- Each chapter of the book ends with some useful tips for programming and debugging, and a section entitled "curios, controversies and cover-ups".
- As well as containing the code of all the examples that appear in the book, the book's website at booksites.net/cornelius contains the code of a www browser written in Java and a set of suggested solutions to some of the exercises.
