Customer Reviews & Comments
This Schaum's outline really disappoints me. First of all, it doesn't even come close to the typical Schaum's formula - some theory, some worked examples, some exercises with solutions, some additional unsolved exercises. I would expect some deviation from the formula on a Schaum's outline that is about a programming language, but the biggest problem in this outline is the complete absence of programming exercises. It is impossible to know if you understand a programming language if you cannot come up with a program that works yourself. Also, the instruction part of the Schaum's is not detailed enough to really "get" the material. Especially flimsy is any material on event handling in Java. This is tricky material to explain to a Java newbie, but it is essential, since otherwise a user really has no way to interact with a Java program. I suggest if you want to learn Java that you pick up either "Head First Java" or "Core Java", and skip this outline completely. I give it two stars only because, even though I found a few errors in the code here and there, there is nothing really wrong with the facts given or the examples presented, even though they are not helpful to the end task of learning Java.
