Publisher's summary

Are you ready to program with Java in less than one week?

Have you always wanted to learn computer programming but you thought it is too difficult for you?

Or perhaps you know other programming languages but you are interested in learning the Java language quickly?

If the answer is Yes...then, this book is for you!

For one, Java is arguably the most acclaimed skill and is in demand nearly everywhere. IBM, Infosys, Twitter, Netflix, Google, Spotify, Uber, Amazon, Target, Yelp, Square, and other big players are always in need of a great Java programmer. Going by a pay scale website, an average Java developer earns about $70,000 annually. As a pro in the field, you have the entire globe to work over, as the demand is never restricted to a particular geographical area.

This book is the ultimate beginners’ crash course to Java programming, as it will help you learn enough about the language in as little as one week! Complex concepts are broken down into simple and easy steps to ensure that you can easily master the Java language even if you have never coded before.

Let me explain why this book is different...I think that the best way to learn Java (or any other skills) is by doing it. This book includes visual charts that you'll guide you and help you learn those specific codes that you want to learn really fast. And in this way, believe me that you'll have an immense sense of achievement and it’ll also help you retain the knowledge and master the language.

This book is for....

  • Those who are completely newbies with Java!
  • Those who have basic information of this programming language!
  • Those who already have the knowledge but perhaps they want to master it well!

The book is updated to the latest Java versions (eight and 10) and the main topics of what the book will be about include:

  • The fundamentals of Java
  • How to program the right way, cutting out the useless fluff!
  • Use arrays and classes for managing program data.
  • Write programs that use loops to perform repetitive tasks.
  • Design and write procedural programs that use methods.
  • Understanding Java Variables, Arrays, Loops, and Conditional Statements
  • Use if and switch statements to make decisions in your programs.
  • Learn the concept of Object Oriented Programming (from fundamentals to advanced)
  • How to understand and write simple Java programs
  • And much, much more!

Let’s begin our learning.

One week book

I bought this book as I needed an upgrade reference to Java. The book not only offers a complete coverage of Java's new features which drastically affected the language but also provides great explanations and examples of the newest APIs.Definitely one of the best Java books I have ever read!

Very Informative Java Book

By far the most useful book for Java programmers who wish to learn the new functional programming features of Java. The book conveys highly useful information in a very digestible step-by-step manner.Technical books could not get much better than this.

This has to be one of the best I have read

love this book! I've been using it to help me find good ways to refactor my Java code. It's written in a way that shows you step by step on how to transition from common ways of doing things in Java 7 to the Java 8 streams way. Even though some refactoring that makes code more terse can also make the code super difficult to read, the suggested changes from this book are incredibly easy to understand.

great Java starting book

The author is very clear and the projects are well thought out. It is a very approachable book that was very helpful to me as a refresher having been away from Java for a while and not having a lot of programming experience in general. This book made it possible for me to quickly get back up to speed and complete a project on time.

One of the best books on Java

I am almost half way through this book. Overall, this is a solid guide to all the new features of Java. Each concept is gently introduced and then discussed in detail. There are plenty of quizzes and practice problems along the way to really reinforce all the different ways you can use the powerful new functionality. Highly recommend this book.

Great way to learn Java

This is a really good guide for people who want to learn Java. I thought it was the perfect length, and the tables and examples were really helpful. The book is written in a beginner-friendly language that isn't too convoluted and you don't feel overwhelmed. It's worth checking out.

Excellent quality

This book dives right into java and starts teaching you the basics of the syntax. I highly recommend this book to people who are just getting started and at a great price it's a no-brainer.
