INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING USING JAVA' is a free, on-line textbook. It is suitable for use in an introductory programming course and for people who are trying to learn programming on their own. There is probably enough material for a full year College programming course. There are no prerequisites beyond a general familiarity with the ideas of computers and programs.

Teach Yourself Java in 21 Days

Based on the enormous amount of press Java is getting and the amount of excitement it has generated, you may get the impression that Java will save the world-or at least solve all the problems of the Internet. Not so. Java's hype has run far ahead of its capabilities, and while Java is indeed new and interesting, it really is another programming language with which you write programs that run on the Internet. In this respect, Java is closer to popular programming languages such as C, C++, Visual Basic, or Pascal, than it is to a page description language such as HTML, or a very simple scripting language such as JavaScript.

Java, 2nd Edition

Like any human language, Java provides a way to express concepts. If successful, this medium of expression will be significantly easier and more flexible than the alternatives as problems grow larger and more complex.

Java, 2nd Edition, Example Codes

Java With Code Example

Java Data Objects

The book is suitable for readers who already know the Java programming language, and wish to learn how to use JDO. No prior experience of JDBC, SQL, J2EE or XML is required. The focus throughout is on using JDO as the persistence layer in an application. A succinct introduction to J2EE is given before the finer details of JDO Integration with J2EE is explained. Naturally, readers with a strong J2EE background will be better placed to position JDO in their distributed architectures than those without.

Jakarta Struts Live

Jakarta Struts Live contains thorough coverage of both the Struts MVC architecture and building each of the Struts components of this architecture. You'll learn to use vital features like Tiles, the Validator, DynaActionForms, plug-ins, and internationalization. You also look at how you can leverage other open-source technologies to improve your Struts development process and experiences.

J2EE and XML Development

J2EE and XML are important technologies in their own right, but applications that use them together benefit from their synergy. Java and J2EE make a powerful platform for building robust application logic. XML facilitates flexible data storage and manipulation. Developers who properly use XML with J2EE develop the most powerful enterprise systems that can be built today.

EJB Design Patterns

The job of the EJB developer is constantly challenging, making the task of designing maintainable and scalable systems difficult without a clear set of best practices to follow. It is with this and other concerns in mind that Floyd Marinescu (Director of TheServerSide.com J2EE Community) worked with thousands of J2EE professionals on TheServerSide to put their collective knowledge together in order to build a library of design patterns, strategies, and best practices for EJB design and development.

Data Structures and Algorithms With Object-Oriented Design Patterns in Java

This book is about the fundamentals of data structures and algorithms--the basic elements from which large and complex software artifacts are built. To develop a solid understanding of a data structure requires three things: First, you must learn how the information is arranged in the memory of the computer. Second, you must become familiar with the algorithms for manipulating the information contained in the data structure. And third, you must understand the performance characteristics of the data structure so that when called upon to select a suitable data structure for a particular application, you are able to make an appropriate decision.
