Inhaltsangabe

While teaching Java programming at Minnesota State University, the authors noticed that engineering students were enrolling in Java programming courses in order to obtain basic programming skills, but there were no Java books suitable for courses intended for engineers. They realized the need for a comprehensive Java programming tutorial that offers basic programming skills that can be applied in the field of engineering. With this in mind, the authors developed Java Programming for Engineers in order to meet the needs of both engineers and engineering students.

The text uses the personal computer as a development platform and assumes no prior programming experience or knowledge. The only skills expected of the reader are basic keyboarding and user-level familiarity with the PC. Topics covered range from mathematical expressions to linear systems to engineering graphics. Chapters on problem solving skills and the designing of engineering applications walk readers through real word problems they might encounter.

Divided into two parts, Part 1 is a description of the Java language, of the fundamentals of object orientation, input and output operations, and error handling. Part 2 is about Java programming for engineers. It starts with computer number systems, fixed- and variable-precision numeric data, mathematical programming in Java as could be of interest to engineers, and concludes with an overview of Java Graphics.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

As professors at Minnesota State University, the authors developed this book after realizing the need for a Java programming book specifically designed for engineering students. The result is a text that presents a complete overview of Java programming as it is applied in the engineering field. The tutorial uses the personal computer as a development platform and assumes no prior programming experience. It emphasizes Java as a problem-solving tool and reduces theoretical computer science topics to their practical and hands-on components. All exercises, examples, and programming projects are derived from engineering problems. Supplementary materials are available through the CRC Web site.
