Best Java Programming

By the time you finish this book, you’ll be able to take advantage of the best design practices and experiences of those who have fought the beast of software design and triumphed. Eric Freeman recently ended nearly a decade as a media company executive, having held the position of CTO of Disney Online & Disney.com at The Walt Disney Company.

It takes all the routine, ordinary, dull stuff and filters it to the background so it won't interfere with your brain's real work--recording things that matter. It's like the creators of the Head First approach say, suppose you're out for a hike and a tiger jumps in front of you, what happens in your brain? You'll learn everything from the fundamentals to advanced topics, including threads, network sockets, and distributed programming with RMI. If you've read a Head First book, you know what to expect--a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. By exploiting how your brain works, Head First Java compresses the time it takes to learn and retain--complex information. Bert Bates is a 20-year software developer, a Java instructor, and a co-developer of Sun's upcoming EJB exam (Sun Certified Business Component Developer).

This highly anticipated new edition of the classic, Jolt Award-winning work has been thoroughly updated to cover Java SE 5 and Java SE 6 features introduced since the first edition. Each chapter in the book consists of several “items” presented in the form of a short, standalone essay that provides specific advice, insight into Java platform subtleties, and outstanding code examples. “Josh Bloch gives great insight into best practices that really can only be discovered after years of study and experience.” —Mark Mascolino, software engineer. It clearly covers many of the language/platform subtleties and trickery you need to learn to become a real Java master.” —Victor Wiewiorowski, vice president development and code quality manager, ValueCommerce Co., Tokyo, Japan. Each one illustrates in simple, practical terms the limits of programming on intuition alone, or taking the most direct path to a solution without fully understanding what the language offers.”. —Michael Ernest, Inkling Research, Inc. “I don’t find many programming books that make me want to read every page—this is one of them.” —Matt Tucker, chief technical officer, Jive Software. “I picked this book up two weeks ago and can safely say I learned more about the Java language in three days of reading than I did in three months of study!

The first title to focus squarely on object-oriented Ruby application design, Practical Object-Oriented Design in Ruby will guide you to superior outcomes, whatever your previous Ruby experience. Understand how object-oriented programming can help you craft Ruby code that is easier to maintain and upgrade Decide what belongs in a single Ruby class Avoid entangling objects that should be kept separate Define flexible interfaces among objects Reduce programming overhead costs with duck typing Successfully apply inheritance Build objects via composition Design cost-effective tests Solve common problems associated with poorly designed Ruby code. Your descriptions are so vibrant and vivid that I’m rediscovering the truth buried in OO principles that are otherwise so internalized that I forget to explore them. “As a self-taught programmer, this was an extremely helpful dive into some OOP concepts that I could definitely stand to become better acquainted with! “Meticulously pragmatic and exquisitely articulate, Practical Object Oriented Design in Ruby makes otherwise elusive knowledge available to an audience which desperately needs it. Not only is the book 100% on-point, Sandi has an easy writing style with lots of great analogies that drive every point home.”. “While Ruby is an object-oriented language, little time is spent in the documentation on what OO truly means or how it should direct the way we build programs. Here Metz brings it to the fore, covering most of the key principles of OO development and design in an engaging, easy-to-understand manner. This is a must-read for anyone wanting to do object-oriented programming in any language, not to mention it has completely changed the way I approach testing.”. “Distilling scary OO design practices with clear-cut examples and explanations makes this a book or novices and experts alike. It’s jam-packed with great nuggets of practical advice and coding techniques that you can start applying immediately in your projects.”. –Kevin Berridge, software engineering manager, Pointe Blank Solutions, and organizer, Burning River Developers Meetup. I am astonished when I find a book that offers new insights and ideas, and even more surprised when it can do so, not just once, but throughout the pages. “Metz’s take on the subject is rooted strongly in theory, but the explanation always stays grounded in real world concerns, which helped me to internalize it. “Whether you’re just getting started in your software development career, or you’ve been coding for years (like I have), it’s likely that you’ll learn a lot from Ms. Metz’s book.

A new theme has been introduced that emphasizes the central role played by different approaches to dealing with time in computational models: objects with state, concurrent programming, functional programming and lazy evaluation, and nondeterministic programming.
