Introduction To Java Programming

This book is intended for a one-semester, beginner’s level course on Java programming. It includes the new features included in JDK1.7. Each of its 16 chapters provide review questions for the readers to self-test their learning. “Try It Out” programs that enable the readers to develop programs for real life problems have also been included. Introduction to Java Programming will help budding programmers solidify their foundation on Java and move on to higher level topics like Swing, JDBC, Servlets etc. Key Features• Simple presentation with an in-depth explanation of concepts up to the required level• Complete programs provided for each concept• New features included in JDK1.7• Updated to J2SE7• Uses the recently introduced printf() method defined in Console class instead of the classical statement System.out.println().

For CS1 (in Java), introductory Java programming, and intermediate Java programming courses offered in Computer Science, Engineering and Business programs at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Designed for a first or second course in Java programming, this text covers Java 2-the newest version of this programming language, principles of programming, and core Java features. A step-by-step approach first lays a sound foundation on programming elements, control statements, and methods; then introduces object-oriented programming; moves on to graphics programming; and concludes with advanced features that enable students to develop comprehensive programs. Representative examples, abundant pedagogy, and multiple exercises provide students with an outstanding introduction to Java.
