Description

Learn Java with Projects bridges the gap between introductory Java guides and verbose, theoretical references. This book is crafted to build a strong foundation in Java programming, starting from the Java environment itself. It goes far beyond a superficial review of the topics; it demonstrates, with practical examples, why these fundamentals are crucial for developing a deep understanding of the language. You'll not only learn about classes and objects but also see how these concepts are used in practical scenarios, enhancing your ability to write clean, efficient code. The engaging projects throughout the book provide real-world applications of complex topics, ensuring you can connect theoretical knowledge with practical skills. What makes this book stand out is the expertise of its authors. Seán, a seasoned university lecturer with over 20 years of experience, brings academic rigor and real-world insights, thanks to his work with a prestigious software company. Maaike, a passionate software developer and award-winning trainer, brings hands-on experience and a love for teaching. By the end of this book, you'll not only understand Java's core concepts and the critical advanced ones, but also gain practical experience through projects that mimic real-life challenges.

In the software engineering world dominated by Python and Golang,there is a big universe where T-Rex 21, Java, is still a first-class citizen.This book is for you if you start your journey with software developmentor Java is your bread and butter.I highly recommend all exercises, especially in my favourite chaptersabout lambda functions and primitive streams.I highly recommend the book, and I can not wait for the next editionon Java Vector API and more advanced topics.As for Sean and Maaike,they prove, that learning new skills can be a lot of fun.

MS MARY GIBLIN Jan 26, 2024

As someone deeply invested in the programming world, I was eager to delve into "Learn Java with Projects" by Maaike van Putten and Dr. Sean Kennedy (Let’s Get Certified). Learn Java with Projects is a comprehensive journey into the world of Java programming. The philosophy that mastery in programming comes from hands-on practice. Is brought to life in this book. The integration of theory with practical application underpins the material, highlighting van Putten and Kennedy's extensive experience in teaching and training. The choice of examples and projects around dinosaurs is a breath of fresh air in technical education and makes for a fun learning approach. The book uses diagrams effectively to explain concepts e.g. In-memory representation of immutable types. The book delves into the nuances of java Programming which is a necessity for anyone planning to take certification exams. The full chapter on Lambda expressions greatly clarified the topic for me. Two full chapters on Streams is noteworthy for anyone developing Microservices with Java. One possible enhancement for the book could be to list or index Java 21 features separately. While these features are embedded within the chapters, having them distinctly listed or indexed would make it easier for readers to quickly reference these latest language updates. "Learn Java with Projects" is a great resource. I would recommend this book for anyone whether you are a beginner, gearing up for certification or an experience programmer that wants to brush up on your skills.

"Learn Java with Projects" is a fantastic guide for diving into Java, whether you're starting from scratch or looking to strengthen your skills. The book finds the sweet spot between too basic and too complex, making sure you get a solid grasp on everything important in Java. It starts with the basics and smoothly transitions you through to more advanced topics, all while keeping you engaged with mini-projects that reinforce what you've learned. These projects are not just busywork; they build up to a larger project that brings all your new knowledge together.What sets this book apart is its practical approach to learning. You'll get to grips with object-oriented programming through clear explanations and examples, covering crucial concepts like classes, inheritance, and polymorphism. The later chapters delve into advanced topics such as generics and concurrency, ensuring you're well-prepared for real-world coding challenges.Whether you're new to programming or just new to Java, this book is a great tool. It's clear, concise, and focused on getting you to understand Java deeply through doing, not just reading. Highly recommend for anyone looking to get proficient in Java quickly and effectively.
