Java An Introduction to Computer Science & Programming

Best-selling author, Walter Savitch, uses a conversational style to teach professionals key programming techniques with Java; which is why the previous edition of this book was one of the most widely used professional/reference Java books. Savitch not only shows how to use object-oriented programming to write great Java code he also includes testing and debugging techniques, as well as practical suggestions on program style, and how to use inheritance, and exception handling features. This edition has been redesigned in a gorgeous, usable, full four-color presentation and also includes thorough coverage of the latest Java 2 Swing libraries and event driven programming. The Java coverage is a concise, accessible introduction that covers all key language features. Thorough early coverage of objects is included, with an emphasis on applications over applets. The author includes a highly flexible format that allows professionals to use the book as a reference and read topics in their preferred order. Although the book does cover such more advanced topics as inheritance, exception handling, and the Swing libraries, it starts from the beginning. The volume provides thorough coverage of Java objects, primitive types, strings, and interactive I/O, flow of control, defining classes and methods, arrays, inheritance, exception handling, streams and file I/O, recursion, window interfaces using swing objects, and applets and HTML. For Programmers or any professional who wants to learn Java from one of the field's most readable and accessible authors.
