Computer Science

• Step-by-step tutorial approach.

  • Teaches students Java from the ground up, and builds upon their understanding of previously learned concepts to introduce new programming features.

• Application-Driven™ methodology.

  • Exciting and motivational real-world applications have been selected so that students, in working through their creation and implementation, learn the fundamentals of programming.

• Deitel™ signature LIVE-CODE™ Approach.

  • Students learn programming by working through and “doing” many examples. This process reinforces and solidifies important programming concepts and fundamentals.

• Use of code highlighting.

  • Emphasizes key portions of the source-code listings in the text with a yellow background to illustrate key concepts.

• Student-friendly presentation—Features excellent selection of motivational and dynamic tutorials, explanations, graphics, and full color throughout.

  • Helps students grasp key content in every step of the learning process, and provides them with line numbers for easy reference in every sample program.

• Debugging sections and exercises.

  • Teaches students the Java command line debugger.

• Seven icon-based tip categories—Includes Good Programming Practices; Software Design Tips; Common Programming Errors; GUI Design Tips; and Error-Prevention Tips.

  • Offers students practical advice and suggestions to enhance and accelerate their learning.

• UML activity diagrams.

  • Replaces flowcharts which are less effective pedagogically and outdated by industry standards.

• Self-review multiple-choice questions and answers.

  • Provides students with immediate feedback after each section.

• Glossary (“key terms”) at the end of each tutorial.

  • Allows students to quickly look up important terms and definitions.

• Many end of tutorial exercises and projects, including one “programming challenge.”

  • Allows students to assess and test their mastery of the content. The “programming challenge” is optional and can be assigned to those students seeking a further challenge.

Java Programming  (Computer Science)

"This book is a wonderful way to get started in Java for those who learn best by doing; you don't just read about language constructs, you build real modern computer applications that demonstrate them as you follow the step-by-step tutorials." — Paul Mclachian, Compuware Corporation

"A great choice for business computing students-lots of sample programs and programming problems. Swing applications are integrated from the beginning and the book focuses on problem-solving logic." — Merrill Parker, Ph.D, Information Systems Technology, Chattanooga State

"What especially impresses me about this text is the absolutely wonderful set of exercises that the authors have included to motivate students to learn programming. I'm really looking forward to using this text in the classroom." — Ed Weihrauch, Community College of Allegheny County

"The seamless integration of UML, object-oriented programming and design, and GUI concepts make this text an excellent choice for introductory programmers looking for a springboard into advanced technologies." — Gavin T. Osborne, Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology

"A terrific book appropriate for any Java IDE-it doesn't flinch at the challenging concepts behind object-oriented programming in Java, yet it takes students through step by step in a straightforward, readable style." — Catherine Wyman, Senior Professor, DeVry University

"A student who had missed my classes on arrays was having a hard time, so she borrowed Tutorial 8 as I was reviewing your draft manuscript. She came back and said she understood arrays. She is very excited about the book." — Craig W. Slinkman, Ph.d, University of Texas, Arlington
