Features: This book is your guide to mastering the Java programming language. It clearly explains fundamental elements such as objects, classes, and data structures, and introduces object-oriented programming, Applet construction, and user interface design. It also discusses exceptions, I/O, and threads in some chapters, helping beginners avoid many common mistakes. Each chapter includes programming exercises and solutions to reinforce learning. The first two editions of this book have received excellent acclaim worldwide. It is suitable for both beginners and experienced programmers: new programmers can gain the most by reading it cover to cover, including following the step-by-step instructions in Chapter 1, "Getting Started," to compile and run their own first program. Programmers with experience in procedural languages (such as C) may prefer to start with the object-oriented concepts and features of the Java programming language. Programmers with experience in object-oriented programming may wish to begin with more advanced content.
