Dalla quarta di copertina

In their introductory book, these best-selling authors provide the beginning computer science student or professional with a thorough introduction to computing with Java and Object-Oriented Programming. Java: An Introduction to Computing teaches traditional and graphical/internet programming. This text provides a solid introduction to computer science as a discipline with an object-oriented approach to Java. The following features and benefits make this text an invaluable tool for learning Java.

FEATURES/BENEFITS:

• Provides extensive coverage of Java 2, including in the Swing components.
• Enjoy a comprehensive reference to the most current version of Java.
• Uses a "spiral" approach, with central topics introduced early and revisited in increasing detail.
• A "use it build it" approach that reduces the learning curve for students or professionals.
• Introduces Object-Centered Design (OCD), in Chapter, culminating in Object-Oriented Design in Chapter 11.
• OCD provides a gentle, consistent approach to OOD and OOP, which is becoming the industry standard.
• Covers GUI programming gradually and consistently in each chapter.
• Learn how to build programs with graphical user interfaces.
• Presents "Part of the Picture" sections, contributed by field experts, in each chapter.
• Introduces the discipline of computer science, including sections on ethics, history, artificial intelligence, and architecture.
