Description
For CS1 (in Java) and introductory Java programming courses offered in Computer Science, Engineering, CIS, MIS, IT and Business programs at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
With a focus on Java's strengths and object-oriented problem solving, this revision of a popular book takes an "objects early" approach to teaching Java, with the assumption that teaching beginners the "big picture" early gives them more time to master the principles of object-oriented programming.
