The Second Edition of Data Abstraction and Problem Solving with Java: Walls and Mirrors, presents fundamental problem-solving and object-oriented programming skills by focusing on data abstraction (the Walls) and recursion (the Mirrors). It is fully revised to use the latest version of the Java programming language (Java 5.0). Java 5.0 is particularly well suited for presenting object-oriented programming, and helps enhances this edition’s increased focus on object-oriented programming and data abstraction. Clear, accessible writing is complimented by a pedagogically rich presentation throughout this textbook.
The Second Edition includes:
- Early and expanded attention to learning the Java language
- Fully updated Java code and UML notation used for all psuedocode
- Coverage of advances in Java 5.0 such as generic types, iterators, and the Java Collections Framework
- Examples that illustrate the role of classes and ADTs in the problem-solving process
