Using Java(TM) 1.1, Java Software Solutions teaches beginning
programmers how to design and implement high-quality object-oriented
software. The authors emphasize problem solving through understanding
requirements, exploring options, and designing conceptually clean
solutions. John Lewis and Bill Loftus wrote this book from the ground
up, taking full advantage of Java to teach introductory programming.
Throughout the book, the authors intertwine the use of applets and
applications to demonstrate computing concepts. Applets are introduced
early, building on the excitement of the web, while applications are
used for readers to gain a clear understanding of programming concepts.
