Simply Java Programming An Application-Driven Tut
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 5/5 from 2 reviews a fantastic computer programming bookAs a compulsive computer programming autodidact, I rate *Simply Java* the best computer language book I have ever read. Java is a hard language to learn. Most books get you bogged down in abstract exercises. *Simply Java* gets you writing practical GUI applications almost immediately. It's worth every penny. I'm going to stop writing this review right now and study another chapter. Almost perfectI'm an experienced C++ programmer with access to JBuilder version 5. I did most of the examples and learned Java along the way. I was able to contruct simple GUI tools for my job as a software engineer based on the examples from the book. The inside is beautifully layed out in color. It's one of the reasons the book is expensive. I am having trouble getting the database examples(ATM&Bookstore) to work. So close to perfection as a learning tool. I imagine there would be more frustration if I did not know how to debug from an IDE. Subtract one star if you are not an experienced programmer with a proper IDE. | ||||||||||||||||||||
