Java examples in a nutshell 1st ed.

"This book is a companion volume to Java in a Nutshell. While Java in a Nutshell is a quick-reference at heart, it also includes an accelerated introduction to Java programming. Java Examples in a Nutshell picks up where that book leaves off, providing a suite of example programs for novice Java programmers and experts alike.

This book doesn't hold your hand or supply detailed explanations of Java syntax or method calls; it simply delivers well-commented, working examples that explore the wide range of what is possible with Java 1.1. Each chapter concludes with programming exercises that suggest further avenues for building on what you have learned."--BOOK JACKET.
