This is a book about computer programming for beginners. It assumes you know very little or nothing about how computers work. This book will show you how to write understandable computer programs in Java, a programming language widely used on the Internet. Per Brinch Hansen is one of the early pioneers in computer programming and this book makes learning proper computer programming in Java fun and easy for everyone.
Uses examples from the humanities only, requiring no math or engineering Explains all concepts by means of complete programs Takes readers from text I/O to object-oriented programming in the equivalent of a one-semester class Provides a solid background for follow-on courses
