Description

Learn Java with Projects bridges the gap between introductory Java guides and verbose, theoretical references. This book is crafted to build a strong foundation in Java programming, starting from the Java environment itself. It goes far beyond a superficial review of the topics; it demonstrates, with practical examples, why these fundamentals are crucial for developing a deep understanding of the language. You'll not only learn about classes and objects but also see how these concepts are used in practical scenarios, enhancing your ability to write clean, efficient code. The engaging projects throughout the book provide real-world applications of complex topics, ensuring you can connect theoretical knowledge with practical skills. What makes this book stand out is the expertise of its authors. Seán, a seasoned university lecturer with over 20 years of experience, brings academic rigor and real-world insights, thanks to his work with a prestigious software company. Maaike, a passionate software developer and award-winning trainer, brings hands-on experience and a love for teaching. By the end of this book, you'll not only understand Java's core concepts and the critical advanced ones, but also gain practical experience through projects that mimic real-life challenges.

Who is this book for?

This book is for anyone looking to learn the core concepts of Java. If you’re learning programming (and Java) for the first time or want to upskill to Java (with experience in a different language), then this book is for you. Prior knowledge of programming is helpful but not necessary.

What you will learn

  • Get to grips with Java fundamentals to build a strong programming foundation
  • Gain a deep understanding of the critical object-oriented principles: encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism
  • Apply real-world scenarios using classes, objects, and interfaces
  • Master exception handling for robust error management
  • Explore generics and collections to manage complex data structures
  • Utilize lambda expressions and streams for efficient data processing
  • Complete practical projects to reinforce theoretical knowledge

It’s an amazing book. I was present at the book launch and posed for a picture but had to leave early for an appointment. Congrats to both authors on the commendable job in getting all this together. I had the opportunity to skim through quickly before the ceremony and was particularly impressed by the choice of projects especially the dynamic dinosaur among others for important topics from students perspective.

As a master's student in computer engineering, I have been referring to this book for some time, and I would definitely say that it turns out to be the ultimate guide for anyone who is an amateur in the world of Java, whether they want to learn the basics or a veteran who wants to brush up their knowledge of advanced Java such as Streams, Concurrency, etc. Every topic in the book is well-explained, accompanied by UML diagrams and code snippets as examples. The exercises at the end of each chapter not only evaluate your understanding of the current chapter but also reinforce learning from previous chapters. The best part of the book is its use of analogies that revolve around the world of dinosaurs. This not only makes it interactive but also creates a vivid picture or story in your mind, helping you relate to objects or references and understand the flow of the program and makes learning fun.

This is a very well written and well illustrated resource by Dr.Seán Knnedy and Maaike van Putten. The best thing about its content is it gives basic concepts of Java in a very understandable way with a beginner can easily grasp the concept. It is also best for people who have no software background. Snippets of codes given along with the description is very useful and helpful for understanding. Great addition in the world of Java leaning. It's a must buy.
