Prepare students to meet Java programming challenges

•  Rich coverage of programming fundamentals; real-world examples.
•  Friendly early classes and objects presentation.
•  Use easily with Java™ SE 8 and/or the new Java™ SE 9.
• Java SE 9 content is in easy-to-include-or-omit sections.
• Perfect for instructors who want to stay in Java SE 8 for a while and ease into Java SE 9.
• Perfect for instructors who want to add JShell (Java 9’s interactive Java) to their Java SE 8 or Java SE 9 courses.
• Signature live-code approach teaches programming by presenting the concepts in the context of complete working programs.
• The text’s modular organization is appropriate for introductory and intermediate programming courses, and helps instructors plan their syllabi.
• Comprehensive coverage of concepts and topics:
• Interactive Java through JShell–Java SE 9’s most exciting new pedagogic feature.
• Java 9 topics: Modularity (online), collection factory methods and other language and API enhancements.
• Lambdas, sequential and parallel streams, functional interfaces, immutability.
• JavaFX GUI, 2D and 3D graphics, animation and video.
• Composition vs. Inheritance, dynamic composition.
• Programming to an interface not an implementation.
• Files, input/output streams and XML serialization.
• Concurrency for optimal multi-core performance.
• Other topics: recursion, searching, sorting, generics, generic collections, data structures, optional Swing GUI, multithreading, database (JDBC ™ and JPA).
• Visit http://deitel.com/books/jhtp11 for reviewer testimonials, Preface, Table of Contents and Foreword.
• Access to the Companion Website (http://www.pearson.com/deitel) is available with the purchase of a new textbook and provides extra hands-on experience and study aids, including:
• Extensive VideoNotes allow students to view the problem-solving process outside of the classroom–when they need help the most. In the VideoNotes, co-author Paul Deitel patiently explains most of the programs in the book’s core chapters. Students like viewing the VideoNotes for reinforcement of core concepts and for further insights.
•  Additional chapters and appendices for advanced courses.
•  Evolving Java SE 9 content
•  Source code for the book’s examples (also available at http://deitel.com/books/jhtp11).

Facilitate Learning with Outstanding Applied Pedagogy 

• Programming Wisdom: Hundreds of valuable programming tips facilitate learning. Icons throughout the text identify Software Engineering Observations, Good Programming Practices, Common Programming Errors, Error-Prevention Tips, Portability Tips, Performance Tips, and Look-and-Feel Observations (for GUI design). These represent the best the authors have gleaned from a combined nine decades of programming and teaching experience.
• Hundreds of self-review exercises with answers.
• Hundreds of interesting real-world exercises and projects enable students to apply what they’ve learned in each chapter (Instructor Solutions Manual contains answers for most).
• “Making a Difference” exercises encourage students to use computers and the Internet to research and address significant social problems.
• Most of the programming exercises are titled to help instructors select the most appropriate exercises for homework assignments.
