From the Back Cover

INTRODUCTORY PROGRAMMING / JAVA

Java Software Solutions: Foundations of Program Design, Fifth Edition

Lewis & Loftus

Java Software Solutions is the proven textbook for teaching beginning programmers how to design and implement high-quality software using the Java programming language. Instructors trust it for its focus on developing problem-solving and design skills alongside solid programming techniques. Students love it for its clear writing and wealth of realistic programming examples.

Highlighted features

• Takes a mainstream approach to presenting objects, with a natural progression of object-oriented design in which students learn to use objects before learning to write them

• Is fully compatible with Java 5.0

• Includes an optional Graphics Track–designed to reinforce the main theme of each chapter by using graphical examples and discussing new graphics material

• Is loaded with Examples–fully implemented color-coded examples, intertwining small, readily understandable examples with larger, more realistic ones

• Provides more opportunity for practice with extensively revised end-of-chapter questions, exercises, and projects

MyCodeMate is a web-based, textbook-specific homework tool and programming resource for an introduction to programming course.

Instructors can assign textbook-specific or self-created homework problems, preset style attributes, view students’ code and class compiler error logs, and track homework completion.

4.0 out of 5 stars good solid book covering all the fundamentals, 23 Aug 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Java Software Solutions: Foundations of Program Design (Paperback)

This book offers the beginner/intermediate programmer a steady climb into the world of java. I found this book to contain excellent clear programming examples and the complexity is always introduced at a rate that should suit even the most timid beginner

3.0 out of 5 stars Medium, 6 April 2009

By	Ms. B. Devenyi "brigitta" (brigitta) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Java Software Solutions: Foundations of Program Design (Paperback)

There is everything all right with the delivery, very fast indeed and the quality was as described (new).
My only problem is that I think this book is pretty useless for those who want to know Java on a high level, since it doesn't have all the things Java really can do and although it's huge book there's a lot of unimportant parts as well, instead of having more details about the more important features of the language.
If you are a beginner, I can really suggest it though!! Cause it takes you through from the beginning step by step and also has GUI, which is quite nice...although again, it doesn't really say much about Swing for example, so you better go to Sun's homepage.
