Appropriate for introductory Computer Science courses using Java (CS1 with Java) and other introductory programming courses using Java offered in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Computer Information Systems, Management Information Systems, Information Technology, and Business departments.

Best-selling author, Walter Savitch, uses a conversational style to teach programmers problem solving and programming techniques with Java. Readers are introduced to object-oriented programming and important computer science concepts such as testing and debugging techniques, program style, inheritance, and exception handling. It includes through coverage of the Swing libraries and event driven programming. The Java coverage is a concise, accessible introduction that covers key language features. Thorough early coverage of objects is included, with an emphasis on applications over applets. The author includes a highly flexible format that allows instructors and readers to adapt coverage of topics to their preferred order. Although the text does cover such more advanced topics as inheritance, exception handling, and the Swing libraries, it starts from the beginning, and it does first teach traditional, more basic techniques, such as algorithm design.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Walter John Savitch (born February 21, 1943) is best known for discovering the complexity class NL (nondeterministic logarithmic space), and for Savitch's theorem, which defines a relationship between the NSPACE and DSPACE complexity classes. His work in establishing complexity classes has helped to create the background against which non-deterministic and probabilistic reasoning can be performed.

He has also done extensive work in the field of natural language processing and mathematical linguistics. He has been focused on computational computing as it applies to genetics and biology for over 10 years.

Aside from his work in theoretical computer science, Savitch has written a number of textbooks for learning to program in C/C++, Java, Ada, Pascal and others.

Savitch received his PhD in mathematics from UC Berkeley in 1969 under the supervision of Stephen Cook. Since then he has been a professor at UCSD where he is currently a professor emeritus in the computer science department.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent ++
    Reviewed in the United States on 8 September 2000

    This is truly an excellent book on Java and OOP, even if you are new to computer programming. Each topic is explained very thoroughly and the programming examples are easy to understand. The book is very well organized. Most books on Java that I've encountered are so obtuse that, even if you're familiar with programming, you'll drown in the example programs alone. It's nice to know that there's someone out there that not only understands Java and OOP but also can explain it clearly. Savitch is the man!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book On Java Out There!

    This book is simply awesome! After trying to read several other Java books, and a couple of online tutorials, I was just confused. Until I came across this book. WOW! I actually know Java now! That's saying something people! If you need to know Java, and you have no programming experience... get THIS book. It's all you'll need.
    P.S. I might mention, Savitch also quickly responded to a couple of emails I sent him (his addy's in the book) and answered my questions that same day. Now that's service!
