Synopsis

The perfect course in Java for absolute beginners: a total book-and-web integrated learning solution that teaches you Java hands-on! Get started with Java: make sure your Java environment works, start editing files and using the Java console; running Java code, applications, and applets. Through simple examples and analogies, learn what objects are and what object-oriented programming involves. Then, master Java data types, control structures, basic Java graphical user interfaces and the layout manager; events, multimedia, even advanced subclassing, inheritance, exceptions and error handling. Like every book in the Prentice Hall Interactive Workbook series, this one is full of hands-on labs, exercises, "test your thinking" projects, and more -- all supported by a free, Web-based training site!
