Java and Object Orientation: An Introduction

Java and Object Orientation: An Introduction is an introduction to object orientation for computer science students and those actively involved in the software industry. Object Orientation is discussed before the author goes on to introduce Java and, throughout, object oriented concepts are illustrated through the Java language with examples for the reader to follow. Design is included as well as coding, and guidance is given on how to build OO applications in Java. The construction of applications, not just applets is discussed in detail, showing how to turn any application into an applet. Java style guidelines are included, meeting the latest release of Java. This book provides guidance on how to build object oriented applications in Java and will be a valuable reference for undergraduates being introduced to object orientation and Java. It will also be of interest to those professionals who wish to convert to (or learn about) object orientation and Java.
