"For someone who is just learning Java, the organization of this book enables him to start coding right away. I think the chance to experience writing a Java program right away would encourage the reader to move on to the next topic. I think the way in which the topics are presented is very appropriate. I like the use of examples and explanation of examples, and I think that approach will appeal both to new students and to experienced programmers." --Debbie Masada, Sun Microsystems Knowing that the best strategy for teaching Java is a step-by-step approach, Y. Daniel Liang has brilliantly written a text that first lays out a sound foundation on programming concepts, statements, and methods and then introduces object-oriented programming. The author continues with graphical user interface (GUI), applets, internationalization, multithreading, multimedia, I/O, and networking. Suitable for both beginning and advanced students, the book covers all the subjects required for the Level 1 Java Certification Exam, the exam initiated by a consortium of leading IT companies, including Sun Microsystems, IBM, Oracle, Hewlett-Packard, BEA Systems, and Sybase. To facilitate developing and managing Java programs, the book is aided by Forte. With a tool like Forte, students not only can develop Java programs more productively but can also learn Java programming more effectively. Forte is introduced throughout the book to help you gradually adapt to using it. KEY FEATURES Forte for Java-Incremental approach makes learning Forte easy.
