LM-programming.java: Beta Edition
This ground-breaking text uses the Java language to teach the first course in programming for computer science majors. Decker and Hirshfield have built a strong reputation for computer science texts with The Analytical Engine and The Object Concept. Java, the new programming language for the Internet, offers cross-platform portability (i.e., it works on IBM, Macintosh, Unix, etc.) and the ability to deliver interactive applets, such as animated games, over the net. Decker and Hirshfield use Java to introduce students to object-oriented programming without the many pitfalls of C++. Because Java is not yet fully developed and standardized, PWS offers this special beta edition in anticipation of a full first edition that will implement the standard Java when it is complete.
