Feature Summary
Objects are emphasized from the start, training students to think about programming in an object-oriented way.
The fundamentals of incremental program design are emphasized by taking students through large Sample Development Programs that reinforce software engineering principles.
The fourth edition takes a gentler approach to teaching students to build their own classes, which makes the difficult topic accessible to students.
The fourth edition contains many new examples geared toward being student-motivating and accessible.
New Java 5.0 features are incorporated into the text including two new classes, the Scanner Class for input and the Formatter class.
Wu presents concepts visually. His diagrams representing objects and classes make these concepts easier for students to understand.
Small complete programs are used the book throughout to provide students with small and digestible examples, making material easier to comprehend.
A Testbank is available to instructors, with questions that can be assigned as exam questions or homework.
