Features: Java is a new programming language introduced by Sun Microsystems in 1995. It is a platform-independent, pure object-oriented language suitable for distributed computing environments. Java and its extensions are gradually becoming the standard for internet applications, sparking another technological revolution since the advent of personal computers. The book consists of 11 chapters, which can be broadly divided into three parts: Part 1, chapters 1 to 3, introduces the basics of the Java language, including an overview of the language, language fundamentals, and control statements. Part 2, chapters 4 to 7, covers the core programming knowledge of Java, including classes and methods, inheritance and polymorphism, packages and interfaces, and exception handling mechanisms. Part 3, chapters 8 to 11, discusses multithreaded programming, Applet programming, input/output, and provides a detailed explanation of some commonly used toolkits and classes in Java. The book is well-organized, logically clear, and thoroughly explained, making it easy for readers to quickly grasp and delve deeper into the subject. This book can be used as a teaching material for computer science and related majors in higher education institutions, as well as for beginners of Java 2 and developers with some Java programming experience.
