Key benefits

A step-by-step guide for beginners to get started with programming in Java 17

Explore core programming topics including GUI programming, concurrency, and error handling

Write efficient code and build projects while learning the fundamentals of programming

Description

Java is one of the most preferred languages among developers. It is used in everything right from smartphones and game consoles to even supercomputers, and its new features simply add to the richness of the language. This book on Java programming begins by helping you learn how to install the Java Development Kit. You’ll then focus on understanding object-oriented programming (OOP), with exclusive insights into concepts such as abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism, which will help you when programming for real-world apps. Next, you’ll cover fundamental programming structures of Java such as data structures and algorithms that will serve as the building blocks for your apps with the help of sample programs and practice examples. You’ll also delve into core programming topics that will assist you with error handling, debugging, and testing your apps. As you progress, you’ll move on to advanced topics such as Java libraries, database management, and network programming and also build a sample project to help you understand the applications of these concepts. By the end of this Java book, you’ll not only have become well-versed with Java 17 but also gained a perspective into the future of this language and have the skills to code efficiently with best practices.

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled?

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date?

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready?

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access?

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How is Early Access delivered?

Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.

How do I buy Early Access content?

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access?

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most.

I have just finished reading Nick Samoylov's book Learn Java 17 Programming. He takes you into a fascinating Java journey by introducing you first to the language building blocks, such as the Java Class Library (JCL), and how the Object Oriented Programming (OOP) principles, such as inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation, are applied in Java. Once he prepares the ground with the basics, he describes the language's new features, such as Sealed and Record classes, while exploring exciting APIs such as Collections and Stream. Nick goes to further distances to give the reader a crisp description of the available techniques for reactive programming and performance benchmarking on Java. I like Nick's writing style because, whenever possible, he provides his personal views from previous experience when explaining a technical concept. It improves the learning experience and turns reading more enjoyable. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned developer, Nick's book is a must-read if you want to learn Java or refresh your skills.

Very clearly and simply written book with good examples to make home the point about the language. Really liked the author's approach to do away with unnecessary pedantic sounded approach, and explain the language in an approachable fashion, so as one can learn the language.Highly Recommended for all Java lovers.

Sarah Nov 27, 2022

This book is good for beginners and is great for anyone looking for references. I would recommend to anybody at any level of Java to read.

Steve Nov 23, 2022

This book is great for someone learning Java or programming in general. It goes over the basic fundamentals and explains why certain structures are used when they are. I think it would make a great textbook or something for a newer programer to use as a refresher when they get stumped. I would highly recommend this book to anyone that wants to get a good foundation in Java.

I enjoyed reading this book and learning about the latest features of Java 17. The author explained all the concepts with lots of code snippets, making this book a great resource for both new and experienced Java developers. Some of my favorite topics included the comprehensive list of IDEs for writing Java code, the way the concept of byte code is explained with an example, an explanation of how the toString() method is implemented in JDK, thorough coverage of the latest Java 17 features, like sealed classes and records. I also found the coverage of complex topics like streams, reactive programming, and micro benchmarking with JMH good enough to get started with it. The companion GitHub site for this book is also very helpful, allowing you to easily download and access code examples. Overall, an excellent book for those looking to master the latest version of Java and improve their coding skills.
