The #1 Java Guide for Serious Programmers: Fully Updated for Java SE
9, 10 & 11
For serious programmers, Core Java, Volume I--Fundamentals, Eleventh
Edition, is the definitive guide to writing robust, maintainable
code. Whether you're using Java SE 9, 10, or 11, it will help you
achieve a deep and practical understanding of the language and API, and
its hundreds of realistic examples reveal the most powerful and
effective ways to get the job done.
Cay Horstmann's updated examples reflect Java's long-awaited
modularization, showing how to write code that's easier to manage and
evolve. You'll learn how to use JShell's new Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL)
for more rapid and exploratory development, and apply key improvements
to the Process API, contended locking, logging, and compilation.
In this first of two volumes, Horstmann offers in-depth coverage of
fundamental Java and UI programming, including objects, generics,
collections, lambda expressions, Swing design, concurrency, and
functional programming. If you're an experienced programmer moving to
Java SE 9, 10, or 11, there's no better source for expert insight,
solutions, and code.
