Foil 40 Some of the 1000 Textbooks

From Java Language in the Computer Science Curriculum ADMI Tutorial Duluth Minnesota -- June 3 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox
We have used these books for course textbooks
  • core Java, by Gary Cornell and Cay S. Horstmann, Sunsoft Press, Prentice-Hall, offers detailed coverage of the whole language and packages for advanced programmers. Also Volume 2 gives good coverage of advanced topics such as JDBC, RMI, JavaBeans and security.
  • Java, How to Program, by Deitel and Deitel, Prentice-Hall, starts with beginning programming concepts and progresses rapidly through Java language. It has the most programming exercises and also has companion teaching multimedia books.
We can also recommend a reference book
  • Java in a Nutshell, by David Flanagan, is the language reference book in the familiar O'Reilly series. The 2nd edition of this book omits many examples from the first edition to make room for large section on JDK 1.1.
  • See Also Java Examples in a Nutshell.
