This textbook presents a focused and accessible primer on the fundamentals of Java programming, with extensive use of illustrative examples and hands-on exercises. Addressing the need to acquire a good working model of objects in order to avoid possible misconceptions, the text introduces the core concepts of object-oriented programming at any stage, supported by the use of contour diagrams. Each chapter has one or more complete programs to illustrate the various ideas presented, and to help readers learn how to write programs on their own. Chapter summaries and practical exercises also are included to help the reader to review their progress and practice their skills. This substantially updated second edition has been expanded with additional exercises, and includes new material on bit manipulation and parallel processing. Topics and features: Introduces computing concepts in Chapter 0 for new programmers Adds new chapters on bit-manipulation and parallel processing Contains exercises at the end of each chapter with selected answers Supports both text-based and GUI-based Input/Output Objects can be introduced first, last, or intermixed with other material Uses contour diagrams to illustrate objects and recursion Discusses OOP concepts such as overloading, class methods, and inheritance Introduces string variables and illustrates arrays and array processing Discusses files, elementary exception processing, and the basics of Javadoc This concise and easy-to-follow textbook/guide is ideal for students in an introductory programming course. It is also suitable as a self-study guide for both practitioners and academics.

Master the fundamentals of Scala and understand its emphasis on functional programming that sets it apart from Java. This book will help you translate what you already know in Java to Scala to start your functional programming journey. Learn Scala is split into four parts: a tour of Scala, a comparison between Java and Scala, Scala-specific features and functional programming idioms, and finally a discussion about adopting Scala in existing Java teams and legacy projects. After reading and using this tutorial, you'll come away with the skills in Scala to kick-start your productivity with this growing popular language. What You'll Learn Tour Scala and learn the basic syntax, constructs, and how to use the REPL Translate Java syntax that you already know into Scala Learn what Scala offers over and above Java Become familiar with functional programming concepts and idioms Gain tips and advice useful when transitioning existing Java projects to Scala Who This Book Is For Java developers looking to transition to Scala. No prior experience necessary in Scala.

Text written in 3 parts: 1) Introduction (including Interfacing to the Web); 2) Programming in Java; 3) Using the advanced capabilities of Java.

The topics covered in this book are selected to teach fundamental programming concepts. This comprehensive version of Java Actually builds a foundation for novice programmers to move on to the more specialised and advanced technologies that use Java. Structured programming (control structures, strings and arrays) and Object-based programming (objects with no inheritance) are covered in the first two Parts so that objects are introduced as soon as possible. This material should be taught in all courses and a shorter version of this book exists to cover just these basics. For those moving onto to an intermediary level, the last parts of the book describe OOP (object-oriented programming) concepts and explain how they are applied.
