An introduction to essential programming concepts and methods starting with the foundations
Programming, data structures, and algorithms are all effortlessly included into Introduction to Java Programming and Data Structures. Prior to teaching students object-oriented programming and advanced Java programming, the text establishes a solid foundation of essential programming principles and strategies. Programming is explained by Liang in a problem-driven manner that emphasizes problem solving over grammar, using examples to clarify key ideas and offering many of tasks for students to work on. To improve clarity, presentation, content, examples, and exercises, the 12th Edition has undergone a comprehensive, in-depth revision.
