What they're saying..."I am impressed by how many topics are covered, including many less-common problems..." Andrew Binstock reviewing the fourth edition in Oracle Java Magazine
Java Cookbook: An Excellent Read "Its 800 pages are packed
with information, all [in a ...]
format which will rapidly get you on the right
track when you make new uses of your Java
knowledge in areas as wide ranging as String
Handling to working with graphics, and from
Internationalisation to JSPs."
"I learned more in two days with this book than I did with several
very good Java books because I need to see examples and how things
work in context. If you're like that too, you'll love this book. I
pack it with my laptop so I'm never without it when I need it --
it's that useful to me!"
"The most useful Java book of them all"

It makes an ideal second book of Java for any developer/analyst/architect, computer science student, or any other serious student of Java. I don't cover the basics of Java syntax, but start with coverage of essential APIs such as String handling, numbers, and dates and times. From there I move into object-oriented and functional programming with Streams, then on into networking (client, web services, brief coverage of server tech). I finish up with some important but sometimes-neglected aspects of Java such as Threads, other languages and native code. For each topic I give around a dozen main ``how-to'' recipes consisting of a problem statement, a quick solution, and more detailed example with code attached (full code available from the download link). |
