The Java language possesses excellent characteristics such as pure object-oriented, simplicity and efficiency, cross-platform compatibility, robust support for multithreading, security, and reliability. It is currently the mainstream programming language for software design, especially in network programming. This book introduces Java programming knowledge and techniques to readers in an easy-to-understand and progressive manner. The main content includes:
Java language fundamentals, object-oriented programming techniques, advanced features of Java classes and objects, exception handling mechanisms, Applets (small applications), graphical user interface design, input/output streams and file management. These are the basic elements and knowledge for writing Java programs.
In addition to numerous examples and exercises, the book also provides hands-on experiments and course projects to comprehensively improve Java programming skills. An electronic teaching plan is also included for convenient teaching.
This book can serve as a textbook for Java programming courses in computer science and related disciplines in universities, as well as a reference for self-learners of the Java language and software developers.
