Summary

Written for programmers with a background in high-level language programming, this book applies the Deitel signature live-code approach to teaching programming and explores the Java language and Java APIs in depth. The book presents concepts in the context of fully tested programs, complete with syntax shading, code highlighting, line-by-line code walkthroughs and program outputs. The book features hundreds of complete Java programs with about 20,000 lines of proven Java code, and hundreds of tips that will help you build robust applications.

 

Start with an introduction to Java using an early classes and objects approach, then rapidly move on to more advanced topics, including JavaFX, exception handling, generics, collections, concurrency, lambdas, JDBC™, web-application development,  web services and more. You’ll enjoy the Deitels’ classic treatment of object-oriented programming.  When you’re finished, you’ll have everything you need to build industrial strength Java SE object-oriented Java applications.
