What's New
FEATURES
The Comprehensive Edition of Wu includes chapters on Memory Allocation Schemes and Linked Data Structures, Generics, Lists, Queues, and Stacks.
New Java 5.0 features are incorporated into the text including two new classes, the Scanner Class for input and the Formatter class. Revisions for the Comprehensive edition include introducing the Scanner Class at the outset rather starting students off with JOption Pane as Wu did in the 4th edition.
The fundamentals of incremental program design are emphasized by taking students through large Sample Development Programs that reinforce software engineering principles.
CONSISTENT PROBLEM SOLVING APPROACH AT THE END OF EVERY CHAPTER FOLLOWS:
*Problem Statement
*Overall Plan
*Design
*Code
*Test
Wu presents concepts visually. His diagrams representing objects and classes make these concepts easier for students to understand. WU HAS MORE DIAGRAMS THAN ANY OTHER TEXT.
The accompanying ARIS site contains solutions for instructors, Anitmated PowerPoint Slides, Labs, Source Code, an Example Bank, Compiler HowTos and more.
A Testbank is available to instructors, with questions that can be assigned as exam questions or homework.
