What will you learn from this book?
Head First Java is a complete learning experience in Java and
object-oriented programming. With this book, you'll learn the Java
language with a unique method that goes beyond how-to manuals and helps
you become a great programmer. Through puzzles, mysteries, and
soul-searching interviews with famous Java objects, you'll quickly get
up to speed on Java's fundamentals and advanced topics including
lambdas, streams, generics, threading, networking, and the dreaded
desktop GUI. If you have experience with another programming language,
Head First Java will engage your brain with more modern approaches to
coding--the sleeker, faster, and easier to read, write, and maintain
Java of today.
