Description
This hands-on introduction to computer science is ideal for those with little or no programming experience. Think Java helps you learn how to think like a computer scientist, not just teach you Java.
Authors Allen Downey and Chris Mayfield guide you through the basics and beyond, covering topics such as recursion, object-oriented programming, and debugging. Each chapter is designed for one week of a college course, with exercises to help you practice what you've learned.
The updated second edition features new chapters on polymorphism and data processing, bringing your Java skills up-to-date with changes through Java 12. With this book, you'll learn how to formulate problems, think creatively about solutions, and write programs clearly and accurately.
