This item has been replaced by Java Software Solutions: Foundations of Program Design, 6/E.

Java Software Solutions, Fourth Edition takes full advantage of the Java 5.0 release in a way that is appropriate for those just learning to write high quality programs. This new edition has an earlier evolution of object concepts, developed in a way that capitalizes on the power of objects without overwhelming beginning programmers.

Takes an object-oriented approach to teaching Java for a beginning programming course.

Features both text-based and GUI-based examples to demonstrate computing concepts, organized to provide the instructor with maximum versatility.

Includes numerous pedagogical tools (e.g. key concept boxes, in-depth focus boxes, and code call out conventions) to reinforce key concepts and best programming practices.

Uses UML: Unified Modeling Language throughout to illustrate program designs.

Contains an abundance of exercises, programming projects, and review questions to reinforce the material in the text.

Comes with access to Addison-Wesley's CodeMate (http://aw-bc.com/codemate), an interactive online programming tutor.

Fully incorporates JDK 5.0, including the NEW java.util.Scanner class for simplified input.

Presents an earlier and more gradual evolution of object concepts.

Stronger emphasis on object-oriented program design.

Places less emphasis on applets and more emphasis on GUI-based applications, while still maintaining a clean division between graphical and non-graphical topics.

Appeals to the visual nature of student learning by providing more integrated figures.

New material on regular expressions.

(* indicates Graphics Track Section.)

Brief Description | Buy from myPearsonStore

As the worldwide best seller for introductory programming using the Java^™ programming language, Java Software Solutions is the premiere model of text that teaches a foundation of programming techniques to foster well-designed object-oriented software. Heralded for its integration of small and large realistic examples, the authors’ emphasize building solid problem-solving and design skills.

The Sixth Edition introduces improvements that make the text a better teaching and learning tool. Revolutionary Video Notes featuring author John Lewis work in conjunction with the text to visually explain challenging topics and in-text Programming Projects. New vignettes explaining real-world software failures emphasize why good design is important, and novel section-level exercises let students check their comprehension before moving on.
