Hello and welcome to Teach Yourself Java in 21 Days! Starting today and for the next few weeks you'll
learn all about the Java language and how to use it to create programs that run inside Web pages (called
applets) and programs that can run on their own (called applications).
That's the overall goal for the next couple weeks. Today, the goals are somewhat more modest, and you'll
learn about the following:
What exactly Java is, and its current status
Why you should learn Java-its various features and advantages over other programming languages
Getting started programming in Java-what you'll need in terms of software and background, as
well as some basic terminology
How to create your first Java programs-to close this day, you'll create both a simple Java
application and a simple Java applet!
Presents the basics of object-oriented programming, provides tutorials for Java applets and applications, and details the Java API |
