Computers are so much a part of our daily lives that many of us take them for granted. You turn on your PC, connect to the Internet and check your stocks, your e-mail, or the weather report, write a note to Grandma, or relax for half an hour by shooting make-believe lasers at make-believe aliens. But if you ever wonder “how do they make a computer do that?” then you may be a candidate for Beginning Programming with Java™ For Dummies®.If you’re ready to take the plunge into programming, Java is a wonderful place to start.
You can write Java code for any operating system. A cool device called the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) will translate your code so it can be understood by your Windows system, your neighbor’s Mac, or your nerdy cousin’s Unix box. Java is a good place to begin learning programming. And not only can programming be fun, it can also be a lucrative career.
Author Barry Burd breaks down Java programming into fun and manageable bites – or bytes. He walks you through downloading and setting up the Java compiler, JVM, and Java API, and then away you go! You’ll be able to
- Explore the parts of a program
- Discover methods, variables, values, and types
- Find out how the computer turns your program into the zeros and ones it understands
- See how your computer makes decisions and how your program directs its choices
- Create loops, use arrays, and program with objects and classes
- Translate the mysteries of some common error messages – and fix the problems they reveal
Once you discover the joys of Java programming, you just might find you’re hooked. You’ll be able to make that machine do your bidding, at least some of the time. You may find yourself thinking of programming like a game of strategy, in which it’s up to you to find the secret passageway, decipher the magic words, and save the princess. Sound like fun? Here’s the place to start.

The Object of Java fully embraces the object-oriented paradigm by taking an "objects-centric" approach to presenting problem solving and programming. This book focuses on the skills and discipline of software engineering that are needed for good programming. Since specifications are critical for conveying code behavior in the object-oriented model, discussions of method preconditions and postconditions, and class invariants are used consistently to document examples and to define example classes. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is used as the specification language. The book also uses the notion of patterns to identify numerous expressions, instructions, algorithms and designs that serve to pattern program segments. This book is designed for those who are programming with the BlueJ IDE. Readers begin with four complete chapters focusing on objects, classes and methods. The presentation of primitive data occurs in Chapter 5, ensuring the necessary prior exposure to object declaration, object instantiation, assignment, method calling, parameter passage, class diagrams and object diagrams. In order to accommodate this placement of topics, control structures are covered later than in other books. The book also emphasizes the importance of testing with special sections devoted to ensure that readers develop basic debugging skills, and knowledge of simple path testing and black-box testing. This book is designed for readers without prior programming experience, and is also appropriate for those with knowledge of other languages who are looking for a true object-oriented introduction to Java.

As you would expect, this new JDK 5 edition of "Murach's Beginning Java 2" includes the most useful new features of Java 5.0, also known as version 1.5. That includes: the Scanner class; type-safe enumerations; enhanced for loops; typed collections; generics; autoboxing; the StringBuilder class. But we didn't just tack these new features onto the old book the way most authors do. Instead, to take advantage of these features and to make other significant improvements, our authors decided that they needed to re-engineer the book from start to finish. The result is a book that will help you learn Java 5.0 faster and better than ever, whether you're a programming novice or have years of programming experience. It is also a book that will take you to a new level of expertise. To help you learn faster, this edition uses the new Scanner class for getting user input in the first three sections of the book. This means that you'll be writing complete programs by the time you finish chapter 2. And you will be writing object-oriented programs with business classes and objects by the time you finish chapter 6. To take you to a new level of expertise: This Java 5.0 (AKA 1.5 ) edition has expanded and enhanced the chapters on object-oriented programming, collections, exceptions, threads, and data access programming. In particular, this edition shows you how to use a three-tiered architecture to separate the business classes, presentation classes, and database classes of an application. It shows you practical techniques for populating business objects with data from files or databases. And it shows you how to use inheritance, polymorphism, interfaces, and the factory pattern in a way that is not only understandable but also useful in real-world applications.
