Features: DeitelLive-Code，Java25.0！Java language is the popular object-oriented programming language, estimated to have 4 million developers! This book is the widely used Java textbook—"JavaHowtoPrgram,6/E" [Java university tutorial (6th edition)]—in the new concise version, which includes most of the content from Chapters 1 to 10 of "Java university tutorial (6th edition)" and introduces the concepts of classes and objects earlier. The book's features lie in its comprehensive coverage of the fundamental principles of object-oriented programming in Java, as well as multiple major integrated case studies: Time class, Employee class, GradeBook class, and optional GUI and graphics tracking. Dr. Harvey M. Deitel and Paul J.

"Regarding the description of the new features of JDK5.0, the book is indeed undeniable"—Doug Kohlert
"The outstanding aspect of the book is the author's focus on how to achieve good software engineering."—Dean Mellas
"The new Chapter 3 introduces OOP, but it doesn't plunge readers into tedious details. I think this is because the book grasps the conceptual details at a very appropriate level! This will be very helpful for my next class for beginners. I once introduced content supporting JHTP at the students' request, abandoning the textbook then assigned. Currently, no textbook can match the organization and presentation of this book. Its Live-Code approach provides reusable code, which makes a great difference in students' programming."—Walt Bunch
"Chapter 9 is an excellent chapter! It skillfully introduces inheritance, and the examples are perfect."—Stephen Weiss
"I really like the way the book explains polymorphism, abstract classes, and interfaces in Chapter 10."—Earl LaBatt
"The book introduces the concept of classes earlier. The author distinguishes between the functionality of classes and their testing, emphasizing good programming design principles."—Craig W. Slinkman
"The optional graphics and GUI tracking case study brings much fun to Java learning for students! Manipulating colors, graphics, and GUIs usually attracts their attention more!"—Karen Arlien
"The UML material is very useful and provides great help."—Gavin Osborne
"The book provides a good presentation of object-oriented programming principles. It is a must-read for all eager programmers!"—Marita Ellixson
This book is the new concise version of "JavaHowtoPrgram,6/E" [Java university tutorial (6th edition)], targeting Java2 platform standard version 5.0, and provides readers with a detailed introduction to how to use the Java language for object-oriented programming. The book mainly includes the following content: First, it comprehensively introduces the basics of the Java language, including input/output, basic types, operators, control statements, and methods/arrays; compared to "JavaHowtoPrgram,6/E," it introduces the concepts of classes, objects, and object-oriented programming earlier, such as inheritance, polymorphism, and interfaces; at the same time, it describes many new features and characteristics of the Java language for J2SE5.0, such as formatted output printf, the Scanner class, the Enum class, and variable-length parameter lists; in addition, the book introduces the Unified Modeling Language (UML2.0) to help readers build a solid foundation in object-oriented design; through multiple detailed case studies, the book enables readers to quickly master object-oriented programming techniques; finally, in the appendix, it introduces how to use useful tools such as debuggers and Java API documentation. This book can be used as a textbook for programming language and Java teaching in universities and colleges, or as a reference for software designers engaged in Java program development.
