Summary

This best-selling text by Lewis and Loftus provides an introduction to both the Java programming language and the techniques for writing high-quality programs. This book provides an object-oriented approach that naturally progresses in a way that beginning programmers easily understand by first using objects, then writing clases. the book is also known for providing an introduction to programming practices that leads to well-designed software solutions. the use of graphical user interfaces and event processing is covered in optional, self-contained Graphics Track sections at the end of each chapter.
