"We-ll be doing this next project in Java."
Unfortunately, you-re a C++ programmer, or maybe a Python programmer. How are you going to get up to speed in a hurry? There are lots of Java books for beginners, telling you all about what a computer is, and how it represents everything in bits. You don-t need that. At the other extreme, there are thousand-page tomes that you aren-t going to get through in a few days, if ever. You need something in between.
This book is intended to fill that gap. It-s written for the programmer who doesn-t need to be taught how to program, just how to do it in Java-and who needs to get started in a hurry.
Java is covered from the inside out. First, all the things that go inside a class, most of which are practically identical to C++. After that, all the various and complicated kinds of classes and interfaces, and how they relate to each other in large-scale programs.
Testing is essential, so (unlike most Java books), JUnit is cover
