Comprehensive guide for learning Java and applying it in the real world

This unique guide goes beyond teaching you the basics of the Java programming language by also showing you how to apply Java, whether for your own Android projects or in the workplace. It covers utilizing Java in an applied environment while also presenting object-oriented programming (OOP) principles used in Java development. Throughout the book, sample programs and helpful screenshots make it easier for you to start programming on your own. You'll be utilizing packages, statements, classes, methods, and exceptions in no time!
