You'll work with proven approaches to app design and implementation - including application frameworks that you can use as a starting point for your own projects.
This complete first course in Java introduces each new concept in the context of programs that manipulate students’own sounds, pictures, web pages, and video: programs that help them communicate. This book presents new techniques only after demonstrating why students need them to solve meaningful problems. Students can then run their digital media programs get immediate feedback that helps them stay on the right track.
The Definitive Guide to Building Java Robots is for educators, students, hobbyists, and startups looking for Java/hardware interaction. This book shows you how to use your PC to build robots, and how you can interface with a microcontroller to do the basics. You'll learn to design your robot to navigate, see, speak, recognize your face, listen to you, and build maps.
Java Programming, Fifth Edition provides the beginning programmer with a guide to developing applications using the Java programming language. Java is popular among professional programmers because it can be used to build visually interesting GUI and Web-based applications. Java also provides an excellent environment for the beginning programmer - a student quickly can build useful programs while learning the basics of structured and object-oriented programming techniques.
Java is an easy language to learn. However, you need to master more than the language syntax to be a professional Java programmer. For one, object-oriented programming (OOP) skill is key to developing robust and effective Java applications. In addition, knowing how to use the vast collection of libraries makes development more rapid.
The third edition of Java Software Structures embraces the enhancements of the latest version of Java (Java 6, as well as Java 5), where all structures and collections are based on generics. The framework of the text walks the reader through three main areas: conceptualization, explanation, and implementation, allowing for a consistent and coherent introduction to data structures. Readers learn how to develop high-quality software systems using well-designed collections and algorithms.
