Features: This book primarily teaches the Java programming language and systematically introduces most of the classes in the main Java packages (i.e., java.lang., java.util, and java.io), providing in-depth analysis of how these classes work through rich examples. The author has updated this classic work to reflect the major enhancements introduced in the Java 2 Standard Edition 5.0 (J2SE 5.0). This edition includes several new chapters dedicated to discussing generics, enums, and annotations (which are the main new features introduced in version 5.0), as well as a few additional sections on assertions and regular expressions. After the update, this book also incorporates the best practices for building robust, efficient, and maintainable Java software today. It is an indispensable reference for all programmers, including experienced ones.
