Book Description
Java Methods introduces the concepts, case studies, and examples relevant to object-oriented programming of applets and applications with graphical user interfaces in Java. The Java 2 platform with swing is used in all examples. This book has been used for introductory computer programming courses and has helped many readers learn Java and OOP concepts on their own.

Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: Java Methods: An Introduction to Object Oriented Programming (Hardcover)
I am a math teacher who can program (not a programmer) and clearly the Litvins are experts. However, I have some terrific AP students (5's on the AP tests, 91% pass rate for over 6 years) and my kids really do not like the Litvin books, find them terribly confusing. We are trying out the Lewis Loftus book and liking it.
