Abstract:
"Extensively revised, the new Second Edition of Programming and Problem Solving with Java continues to be the most student-friendly text available. The authors broke the text into smaller, more manageable pieces through chapter reorganization, allowing students to focus more sharply on the important information at hand. Using Dale and Weems' effective "progressive objects" approach, students begin with simple yet useful class design in parallel with the introduction of Java's basic data types, arithmetic operations, control structures, and file I/O. Students see firsthand how the library of objects steadily grows larger, enabling increasingly sophisticated applications to be developed through reuse."--BOOK JACKET.
