I purchased Head First Java as a complement to a required text in a Computer Programming I course. Now I am in the Computer Programming II course and this book continues to hold my hand through the concepts of Object Oriented Programming and the Java language. I'm not just recognizing mention of the concepts, I am really learning them. The layout of the book helps me to understand OOP in a way that I will not forget. I don't find myself having to go back and forth to the book because I forgot what I read a week ago. I can't get "Objectville" OUT of my mind! The examples are everyday scenarios that everyone can relate to, not just seasoned programmers. I also like the different sections, varied font types and "hand written" notes... nothing is left to the assumption that you get it the first time. Inheritance and polymorphism are broken down in such a way that my kids would not have a problem understanding. I have to say that the "Head First.." book series will be the first I will look for if I need other companion books in any other classes. |
