{"product_id":"quick-java-david-matuszek-9781032502779","title":"Quick Java","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"We'll be doing this next project in Java.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, you're a C++ programmer, or maybe a Python programmer. How are you going to get up to speed in a hurry? There are lots of Java books for beginners, telling you all about what a computer is and how it represents everything in bits. You don't need that. At the other extreme, there are thousand-page tomes that you aren't going to get through in a few days, if ever. You need something in-between.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is intended to fill that gap. It's written for the programmer who doesn't need to be taught how to program, just how to do it in Java--and who needs to get started in a hurry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJava is covered from the inside out. First, all the things that go inside a class, most of which are practically identical to C++. After that, all the various and complicated kinds of classes and interfaces and how they relate to each other in large-scale programs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTesting is essential, so (unlike most Java books) JUnit is covered in detail. Then, in case you need to go in that direction, some functional programming, a little about parallel programming, and more than enough to get you started in building GUIs (graphical user interfaces) and doing animation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere's a lot in this little book and, despite my best efforts, you won't learn Java in a weekend. But it should be a good start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCircular approach allows very fast entry into Java\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFull description of JUnit testing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSummary of functional programming in Java\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduction to synchronization and parallel processing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtensive description of building GUIs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Matuszek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032502770\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032502779\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"David Matuszek","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44302487748863,"sku":"9781032502779","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8096419b-5d69-4505-b53c-873af147e600.jpg?v=1695161902","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/quick-java-david-matuszek-9781032502779","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
