商品描述

Description:

Learning a complex new language is no easy task especially when it s an object-oriented computer programming language like Java. You might think the problem is your brain. It seems to have a mind of its own, a mind that doesn't always want to take in the dry, technical stuff you're forced to study.

The fact is your brain craves novelty. It's constantly searching, scanning, waiting for something unusual to happen. After all, that's the way it was built to help you stay alive. It takes all the routine, ordinary, dull stuff and filters it to the background so it won't interfere with your brain's real work--recording things that matter. How does your brain know what matters? It's like the creators of the Head First approach say, suppose you're out for a hike and a tiger jumps in front of you, what happens in your brain? Neurons fire. Emotions crank up. Chemicals surge.

That's how your brain knows.

And that's how your brain will learn Java. Head First Java combines puzzles, strong visuals, mysteries, and soul-searching interviews with famous Java objects to engage you in many different ways. It's fast, it's fun, and its effective. And, despite its playful appearance, Head First Java is serious stuff: a complete introduction to object-oriented programming and Java. You'll learn everything from the fundamentals to advanced topics, including threads, network sockets, and distributed programming with RMI. And the new. second edition focuses on Java 5.0, the latest version of the Java language and development platform. Because Java 5.0 is a major update to the platform, with deep, code-level changes, even more careful study and implementation is required. So learning the Head First way is more important than ever.

If you've read a Head First book, you know what to expect--a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. If you haven't, you're in for a treat. You'll see why people say it's unlike any other Java book you've ever read.

By exploiting how your brain works, Head First Java compresses the time it takes to learn and retain--complex information. Its unique approach not only shows you what you need to know about Java syntax, it teaches you to think like a Java programmer. If you want to be bored, buy some other book. But if you want to understand Java, this book's for you.

描述:
學習一門複雜的新語言並不容易,尤其是像Java這樣的面向對象的計算機編程語言。你可能會認為問題出在你的大腦上。它似乎有自己的思維,並不總是願意接受你被迫學習的乾燥、技術性的東西。

事實上,你的大腦渴望新奇。它不斷搜索、掃描,等待著不尋常的事情發生。畢竟,這就是它被建造出來的方式,以幫助你保持生存。它將所有例行、普通、乏味的事情過濾到背景中,以免干擾你的大腦真正的工作——記錄重要的事情。你的大腦如何知道什麼是重要的呢?就像Head First方法的創造者們所說的,假設你正在徒步旅行,一隻老虎跳到你面前,你的大腦會發生什麼?神經元會激發。情緒會升高。化學物質會湧現。

這就是你的大腦知道的方式。

這也是你的大腦學習Java的方式。Head First Java結合了謎題、強烈的視覺效果、神秘感和與著名的Java對象進行的深入訪談,以多種不同的方式吸引你。它快速、有趣,而且有效。儘管它看起來玩味十足,但Head First Java是嚴肅的東西:它是一個完整的面向對象編程和Java的入門教程。你將從基礎知識到高級主題學習一切,包括線程、網絡套接字和使用RMI進行分佈式編程。而這本新的第二版專注於Java 5.0,這是Java語言和開發平台的最新版本。由於Java 5.0是平台的一個重大更新,具有深層的代碼級變化,因此需要更加仔細的學習和實施。因此,學習Head First的方式比以往更加重要。

如果你讀過Head First系列的書,你就知道可以期待什麼——一種視覺豐富的格式,設計符合你的大腦工作方式。如果你還沒有讀過,你將會有所驚喜。你將明白為什麼人們說這本書不像你以前讀過的任何一本Java書籍。

通過利用你的大腦工作方式,Head First Java壓縮了學習和記憶複雜信息所需的時間。它獨特的方法不僅向你展示了關於Java語法的知識,還教你像一個Java程序員一樣思考。如果你想感到無聊,就買其他書吧。但如果你想理解Java,這本書就是為你而寫的。
