Whether you're taking a class or learning on the job, The Java(tm) Tutorial, Third Edition, is a hands-on guide that lets you quickly become proficient with the Java programming language. Written by members of the Java Software team at Sun Microsystems, the book uses an interactive approach to help you learn the Java platform by example.

Since its first online release in 1995, the material in The Java(tm) Tutorial has been updated continuously to reflect reader feedback and new releases of the Java platform. This third edition has been thoroughly updated to cover v1.3 of the Java Platform, Standard Edition, as well as preceding versions as early as JDK 1.1.

You will find clear explanations of such fundamentals as objects, classes, and data structures. In addition, the book provides introductions to object-oriented programming, applet construction, and user interface design. Other topics include exceptions, I/O, and threads. To help beginners avoid many common mistakes, an entire chapter is devoted to programming problems and their solutions. Convenient summaries at the end of each section are new to this edition. Also new for this edition are "Questions and Exercises" sections to help you practice what you learn. The accompanying CD-ROM is filled with valuable resources, including:
* All three Java(tm) Tutorial books in HTML: The Java(tm) Tutorial, The Java(tm) Tutorial Continued, and The JFC Swing Tutorial.
* All major versions of the Java platform, versions 1.0.2 through 1.3 for the Solaris and Win32 platforms. The latest Java platform for Linux, Standard Edition v1.3, is also included.
* API documentation for the Java platform.
* Source code for all examples.

After working through the lessons in this proven tutorial, you will be well prepared to use the Java programming language in your school or workplace.

Preface Since the release of the Java Development Kit in May of 1995, the engineering team at Sun Microsystems has been hard at work improving and enhancing the Java platform. We have been similarly laboring to update The Java Tutorial to reflect the work of the engineers.

From the first page to the last, this edition now documents the APIs in the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v 1.3. We have fully integrated SDK 1.3 updates into the text, plus we've added questions and exercises to help you practice what you learn. To help beginners avoid many common mistakes, an entire chapter is devoted to programming problems and their solutions. Convenient summaries at the end of each section are also new to this edition. Like the first and second editions, this book is based on the online tutorial hosted at Sun Microsystem's Web site for the Java platform.

Like the online version, this book reflects the latest advances in Java technology. Unlike the online version, this book solely focuses on the APIs needed by most beginning to intermediate programmers. Once you've mastered the material in this book, you can explore the rest of the Java platform on the Web site.

Our intent has always been to create a fun, easy-to-read, task-oriented programmer's guide with lots of practical examples to help people learn to program.
