Java By Example

This book highlights key features of the Java language with examples designed for experienced programmers. The text clearly and concisely describes how to create Java applets and applications and shows the development of a complete Java program from start to finish.

There's no better way to learn Java than by example...
If you're an experienced programmer, Java by Example is the quickest way to learn Java. By reviewing example code written by experts, you'll learn the right way to develop Java applets and applications that are elegant, readable, and easy to maintain.
Step-by-step, working from examples, you'll learn valuable techniques for managing memory, I/O, multithreading, exception handling, and interfacing with C programs.
The second edition adds extensive coverage of remote methods invocation (RMI), networking, and database access using the new Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) API.
Java by Example teaches what you need to know, the way you want to learn: from real, working code.
