4.0 out of 5 stars thorough introduction to java, June 23, 2009
The text gives a thorough introduction to Java. Giving both the graphics and the numerical features. No prior knowledge of object oriented programming is assumed by the reader.

Hopefully you should find Java to be elegant, if you already know another language. The discourse goes into the object oriented nature of the classes. To be sure, if you know C, then having "all classes all the time" can initially seem overweight or overly complex. But the point is that Java, as an OO language, can let you code far more difficult and lengthy programs than a procedural language like C.

At the graphics level, the book lets you rapidly go into making simple programs that put up windows with various types of widgets. Straightforward. Though the layout managers in standard java are a little primitive. But at the level of treatment in the book, it may be hard to see this.
