Now in its fifth edition, Java in Easy Steps begins by explaining how to download and install the free Java Development Kit (JDK) for the Java SE (Standard Edition) platform. This allows the reader to quickly begin creating their own executable programs by copying the examples.

This book assumes no previous knowledge of any programming language so it's ideal for the newcomer to computer programming. Each chapter builds the reader's knowledge of Java. By the end of this book the reader will have gained a sound understanding of the Java language and be able to write their own Java programs and compile them into executable files that can be run on any Java-enabled computer.
