Learn Java fundamentals : a primer for Java development and programming

Abstract

Sharpen your Java skills and boost your potential as an IT specialist. This book introduces you to the basic Java features and APIs needed to prepare for a career in programming and development. You'll first receive an introduction to Java and then explore language features ranging from comments though exception/error handling, focusing mainly on language syntax and a few select syntax-related APIs. This constitutes the heart of the book, and you'll use these building blocks to construct simple Java programs, and learn where Java's implementations of expressions (and operators), and statements diverge from other languages.
