 What is New in the 5E?
Contents There are already more features in Java than an introductory
course can cover. This edition is not aimed to cover the new
Organization features in JDK 1.5. Nevertheless, some useful features in JDK 1.5
are appropriately introduced to beginners. Specifically,
Examples and New formatted output (System.out.printf) is covered in
Case Studies Ch2.
New chapters New enhanced for loop is covered in Chs 5 and 18.
New Scanner class is covered in Ch7.
Exercises Boxing and unboxing of primitives in Ch9
New static import is covered in Ch11.
JDK 1.5 New generic types is covered in Ch18.
New rmi feature is covered in Ch29.
To enable the courses based on JDK 1.4 to use this book and to
enable instructors to choose JDK 1.5 topics freely, all sections on
JDK 1.5 are marked JDK 1.5 Features and can be skipped.

 Fundamental-First Teaching Strategy
A step-by-step approach, first laying a sound
foundation on programming concepts, control
statements, methods, and arrays, then introducing
object-oriented programming, and then moving on
to graphical user interface (GUI), applets, and
finally to exception handling, I/O, data structures,
and other advanced subjects in the comprehensive
version.

 Why Fundamental-First ?
From my own experience, confirmed by the
experiences of many colleagues, I have found that
learning basic logic and fundamental programming
techniques like loops is a struggle for most first-year
students. Students who cannot write code in procedural
programming are not able to learn object-oriented
programming. If a student knows how to write loops,
the student will succeed in learning Java. A good
introduction on primitive data types, control
statements, methods, and arrays prepares students
to learn object-oriented programming. Therefore,
this book adopts the fundamentals-first strategy.

 Teaching Problem-Solving
This book is not simply about how to program, for it
teaches, as well, how to solve problems using programs.
Applying the concept of abstraction in the design and
implementation of software projects is the key to
developing software. The overriding objective of the
book, therefore, is to teach students to use many levels of
abstraction in solving problems and to see problems in
small and in large. The examples and exercises
throughout the book foster the concept of developing
reusable components and using them to create practical
projects.

 No Non-Standard Classes
The book does not use any custom classes for
input. Early chapters use JOptionPane to receive
input and later chapters use GUI to interact with
the user.
