Learn Java the Hard Way

by Graham Mitchell

In the style of Zed Shaw's "Hard Way" series of programming instructions, this book teaches Java to beginners through examples, terminal commands and typing.

From the preface:

"I have been teaching beginners how to code for over fifteen years, More than 2,000 students have taken my classes and left knowing to how to write simple programs that work. Some learned how to do only a little and others gained incredble skill over the course of just a few years.

I believe that nearly anyone can teach a child prodigy how to code. "I taught my 9-year-old daughter to code, and she made her first Android app six weeks later!" If you are the child prodigy, this book is not written for you.

I have also come to beliee that there is no substitute for writing small programs. So that's what you will do in this book. You will type in small programs and run them."
