Java Programming, Second Edition

Java Programming, Second Edition, is written and designed specifically for students with no previous programming experience. Object-oriented techniques are introduced early, featuring short code examples that are built from the bottom up. Java applications are introduced prior to applets so students understand the programming process more thoroughly, in a simplified environment. The second edition has been modified to include additional student exercises; explanations and examples using the StringBuffer class; and a whole chapter explaining Swing. Swing components are used in place of AWT components.
