By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: New York: John Wiley & Sons. Inc., ©1998.Description: xvi, 624 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmISBN:
  • 0471172235
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 005.133 23 H819
Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Fundamental data types -- 3. Objects -- 4. Decisions -- 5. Iteration -- 6. Functions -- 7. Testing and debugging -- 8. Classes -- 9. Arrays -- 10. Files -- 11. Packages -- 12. Algorithms -- 13. Data structures -- 14. Inheritance.
Summary: This text uses Java to describe programming concepts, taking full advantage of Java's simpler and more consistent syntax. Its traditional approach uses modern CS tools including a strategic subset of Java and a simple object-oriented graphics library. The text teaches Java as a first programming language and distills it down to a core of fundamental data types, structures and syntax. It presents Java in a leaner and more practical fashion with a subset covering basic types, stream input and output, the "string" class, branches and loops, functions, parameter passing and classes. The book includes a style guide (available in electronic format) and details common student programming mistakes.
