This book is a brief version of Introduction to Java Programming, Comprehensive Version, 8E. This version is designed for an introductory programming course, commonly known as CS1. This version contains the first twenty chapters in the comprehensive version. This book uses the fundamentals-first approach and teaches programming concepts and techniques in a problem-driven way.
The fundamentals-first approach introduces basic programming concepts and techniques before objects and classes. My own experience, confirmed by the experiences of many col- leagues, demonstrates that new programmers in order to succeed must learn basic logic and fundamental programming techniques such as loops and stepwise refinement.
The fundamental concepts and techniques of loops, methods, and arrays are the foundation for pro- gramming. Building the foundation prepares students to learn object-oriented programming, GUI, database, and Web programming. Problem-driven means focused on problem-solving rather than syntax. We make introduc- tory programming interesting by using interesting problems.
The central thread of this book is on solving problems. Appropriate syntax and library are introduced to support the writing of a program for solving the problems. To support teaching programming in a problem- driven way, the book provides a wide variety of problems at various levels of difficulty to motivate students. In order to appeal to students in all majors, the problems cover many appli- cation areas in math, science, business, financials, gaming, animation, and multimedia.
