A FIRST BOOK OF JAVA blends Gary Bronson's successful experience teaching introductory programming courses with key elements students need to know when programming in Java. Like the other books in Bronson's First Book of series, its purpose is to provide students with the tools, techniques, and understanding necessary to create and maintain Java programs at an introductory level. The author takes great care to explain key programming constructs that every beginning student should know, using pedagogy such as aeCommon Programming ErrorsAE sections, end of section exercises to build students skills, and chapter supplement sections that provide enrichment on basic topics. By the time the students complete this book, they will have a strong foundation for learning more advanced features of the Java language. Bronson has taken this proven approach and updated it to incorporate key elements of the Java language. This includes coverage of objects - oriented programming, graphical user interfaces, and event driven programming. These topics are introduced to the students from day one and are developed throughout the text. Since these topics can be complex for the beginning student, Bronson gradually introduces the topics in Part I, while delaying more complex details until later sections. This allows students to fully grasp key programming constructs. The book also provides extensive flexibility depending on how many and when programming concepts and programming techniques are to be introduced. The author has partitioned the text into four parts, allowing professors to pick and choose topics that reflect the goals of their course."
