Synopsis:

This package contains Java: An Introduction to Problem Solving and Programming, 6e,an access code for MyProgrammingLab, and a Pearson eText student access code card forJava: An Introduction to Problem Solving and Programming, 6e.

Java: An Introduction to Problem Solving and Programming, 6e, is ideal for introductory Computer Science courses using Java, and other introductory programming courses in departments of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, CIS, MIS, IT, and Business. Students are introduced to object-oriented programming and important concepts such as design, testing and debugging, programming style, interfaces inheritance, and exception handling. The Java coverage is a concise, accessible introduction that covers key language features. Objects are covered thoroughly and early in the text, with an emphasis on application programs over applets.

MyProgrammingLab is a database of programming exercises correlated to specific Pearson CS1/Intro to Programming textbooks. The exercises are short, focused on a particular programming topic, and are assignable and automatically evaluated. MyProgrammingLab provides immediate, personalized feedback which helps students master the syntax, semantics and basic usage of the programming language, freeing instructors to focus on problem-solving strategies, design and analysis, abstraction, algorithms, and style.
