OBJECT ORIENTED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT USING JAVA 2ND EDITION PDF

Secondly, the method call to notify() does not specify explicitly which thread should be alerted. In fact, this seems more dubious when we consider that there are two conditions for which threads look out for—an empty buffer and a full buffer.
To explain these observations, we recall the natu[r]

Chapter 12 - Arrays. This chapter’s objectives are to: Learn about arrays and when to use them, learn the syntax for declaring and initializing arrays and how to access array’s size and elements, learn about the java.util.ArrayList class, discuss “for each” loops, learn simple array algorithms, unde[r]

Chapter 3 - Objects and classes. This chapter gives an introduction to the main Java and OOP concepts but does not require their full understanding. In terms of grasping the big picture, each student proceeds at his or her own pace. The same concepts are covered later in more depth. Here students ge[r]

Chapter 4 - Algorithms. This chapter’s objectives are to: Understand general properties of algorithms, get familiar with pseudocode and flowcharts, learn about iterations and recursion, learn about working with lists, learn basic facts about OOP.

Chapter 5 - Java syntax and style. This is an important chapter because it explains and contrasts two related aspects of writing code in a high-level programming language: language syntax rules and good programming style.

Chapter 6 - Data types, variables, and arithmetic. In this chapter, the learning objectives are: Discuss primitive data types; learn how to declare fields and local variables; learn about arithmetic operators, compound assignment operators, and increment/decrement operators; discuss common mistakes[r]

Chapter 7 - Boolean expressions and if-else statements. This chapter also includes relational and logical operators, De Morgan’s Laws, the switch statement and enum data types. Another objective is to discuss team development and illustrate software reusability in the context of a simple but realist[r]

Chapter 8 - Iterative statements: while, for, do–while. In this chapter, the learning objectives are: Understand the semantics and learn the Java syntax for while, for, and do-while loops; learn how to use nested loops.

Chapter 9 - Implementing classes and using objects. This is a long and technical chapter: it deals with several important Java concepts and syntax details. These objectives are within the AP Java Subset for the A-level exam. Some of the details related to classes and methods are left out. Java is a[r]

Chapter 10 - Strings. In this chapter, the learning objectives are: Learn about literal strings, learn about string constructors and commonly used methods, understand immutability of strings, learn to format numbers into strings and extract numbers from strings, learn several useful methods of the C[r]

Chapter 11 - Class hierarchies and interfaces. In this chapter, the learning objectives are: Understand class hierarchies and polymorphism, learn about abstract classes, learn the syntax for calling superclass’s constructors and methods, understand interfaces.

Chapter 13 - java.util.ArrayList. In this chapter, the learning objectives are: Learn about java.util.List interface; learn about the java.util.ArrayList class, its constructors and methods; review some of the ArrayList pitfalls; practice with Part 4 of GridWorld ― “Critters”.

Chapter 1 - An introduction to hardware, software, and the internet. This chapter’s objectives are to: Get an overview of the main hardware components and terms: CPU, memory, peripheral devices; learn about software: operating system and application software; get an idea of how information is stored[r]

Chapter 14 - Searching and sorting. This chapter is a survey of the basic searching and sorting algorithms including the four standard sorting algorithms. This chapter’s objectives are to: Learn about the three ways to compare objects in Java, learn the following algorithms.

Chapter 15 - Streams and files. This chapter’s objectives are to: Learn the basic facts about Java’s IO package, understand the difference between text and binary files, understand the concept of an input or output stream, learn about handling exceptions.

Chapter 16 - Graphics. This chapter introduces basic general computer graphics concepts as well as a few specifics for Java. This chapter’s objectives are to: Understand computer graphics basics; learn about paint, paintcomponent, and repaint methods; learn about coordinates and colors; review shape[r]

Chapter 17 - GUI components and events. This chapter is only a brief overview of Java’s Swing package and event handling classes. After studying this chapter, the reader should be able to get enough background to research on his or her own the remaining classes and methods from Java’s API docs.

Chapter 18 - Mouse, keyboard, sounds, and images. This is essentially a “learning by doing” chapter. Not much theory here. This chapter also introduces bit-wise logical operators in the context of identifying the status of keyboard modifier keys (Alt, Shift, Ctrl).

Chapter 19 - Big-O analysis of algorithms. Theoretical details in this chapter are for mathematically-inclined students. This is AB-level material. This chapter also provides the necessary background for discussing data structures in the subsequent chapters.

Chapter 21 - Lists and iterators. In this and the following chapter we start looking at the implementation details of data structures. This chapter’s objectives are to: Learn to work with ListNode objects and do-it-yourself linked lists; understand singly-linked list, linked list with a tail, circul[r]
