Rating: - Doesn't do the job
I am an experienced programmer who wants to learn Java. Every time I reach for this book I am disappointed. Today I wanted to learn about servlets, but the chapter on servlets is so confusing that I'm going to look for an on-line tutorial instead. The authors completely skip the very important fact that most servlets are invoked when the user first displays an HTML file. Instead, they jump right into showing the code of a very simple servlet instead of taking things from the top, which would ... Read More
Rating: - Great for Beginners
My Java 2 teacher recommended this book. I like it so far. If you are new to programming, this is the right book for you. If you like topics explained thoroughly, this is the right book for you. The book explains the code line by line. Also, if you have a different programming language background, this is the right book for you.
Rating: - A very good introduction
This is a vey good introduction to Java. In a way, it assumes that you have had little programming experience. The result is that, at times, the explanantion of concepts become too wordy.
But if you be intelligent enough to skim through portions that you are familiar with, it is an excellent introduction.
At the end of the day, your programming skill will depend on whether you take the exercises seriously. There is no shortcut to being a good programmer. Attempt the hard ... Read More
Rating: - Worst Book...
I am a Computer Science student. I recommend that if your school doesn't require you to have this book, DON'T BUY THIS DEITEL BOOK to study Java. The "Good Programming Practice", "Performance Tip", "Common Programming Error"... tips in the book, will disconnect you from the flow of thinking while reading. Moreover, the book mainly focuses on the detail of programming ethnics. The fundamental concept of Object-Oriented-Programming which the students need is not clearly described in the book.
Rating: - Don't reccomend for experienced -or- beginners!
I cannot reccomend this book to experienced programmers learning Java or to beginners. The experienced will find it cluttered and watered down, and beginners will end up with a very novice, incomplete, and probably incorrect comprehension of the more complicated aspects.
The first few chapters are ok for someone new to programming but beyond that the text is extremely bloated and only explains complex topics with "for dummies" examples that will leave you unable to perform in a real ... Read More
