Object Oriented Programming in Java: Attend class lecturers from home

by Vaskaran Sarcar

1. The aim of this book is to help you to get a feel of a Java classroom environment. I was involved in teaching since 2005.I have taken classes in both engineering and non-engineering colleges. And fortunately most of my teaching involvement was dedicated on Java and its advanced topics. That is the true motivation to introduce a book like this.
2.This book will not discuss how to write an if-else statement or a simple while loop etc. Your teacher expects that before attending the class, you have done your basic homework. Here your teacher will focus on the basic object oriented concepts that we can implement in Java.
3. So, as mentioned earlier, with this book you will have a feel that you are learning Java in a classroom environment-where your teacher will discuss some problem/topics, ask you questions and give you assignments. You will be encouraged to do those simple assignments before entering into a new topic. If you are dedicated to this subject and to those assignments, you will surely develop the confidence on this language.
4. In a semester there will be certain number of lectures to complete the fundamental topics. And we all know that learning is a continuous process. So, this book is not for those who want to learn Java in 24 hours or 7 days. It is up to you only. What the author can say is that the book is designed for you in such a way that after completion of the book, you will develop an adequate knowledge on the topic, you’ll learn the key features of this powerful language, you’ll learn how we should write programs in Java and most importantly, how to go further.
5. Lastly the programs are tested with eclipse. Though it is not mandatory for you to learn eclipse. You can simply run these programs in your preferred IDE. Author has chosen eclipse because it is widely used to develop Java applications.
