By emphasizing the application of computer programming not only in success stories in the software industry but also in familiar scenarios in physical and biological science, engineering, and applied mathematics, Introduction to Programming in Java takes an interdisciplinary approach to teaching programming with the Java ™ programming language. Interesting applications in these fields foster a foundation of computer science concepts and programming skills that students can use in later courses while demonstrating that computation is an integral part of the modern world.

Ten years in development, this book thoroughly covers the field and is ideal for traditional introductory programming courses. It can also be used as a supplement or a main text for courses that integrate programming with mathematics, science, or engineering.

Introduction to Programming in Java: An Interdisciplinary Approach Reviews

  • Yunhan Yang

    Strongly recommended! It's an amazing book, more focusing on the introduction to programming rather than Java. The topics cover the programming applications on audio, graphics, images, statistics, daily life, maths (you will see how beautiful the maths is after reading this book), algorithms, etc. The Q & A and exercises are the most important parts should not be missed, although it's a bit of difficult to the new programming learner like me.
    Just created a repository of the solutions of exercises in this book:

    You may help to improve the solutions together.

  • Chris Herdt

    This is a great introduction to Java. Some of the examples include image processing and audio processing: once you get through this, you'll not only have a solid background in Java but you'll actually be able to do some interesting things in the language as well.

  • Katherine

    This is appealing to those inclined to learning Java beyond the basics. The author sure didn't run out of examples, mostly applications of mathematical theories.

    There are very interesting things like creating and manipulating graphics in Java.
