<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS is a self-study and/or instructor led tutorial teaching the basics of building a Java application with a swing graphic user interface (GUI).<br /> <br /> LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS has 9 lessons covering object-oriented programming concepts, using the NetBeans integrated development environment to create and test Java projects, building and distributing GUI applications, understanding and using the Swing control library, exception handling, sequential file access, graphics, multimedia, advanced topics such as printing, and help system authoring.<br /> <br /> The focus of LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS is to use the existing objects and capabilities of the Java Swing library to build a wide variety of useful desktop applications. Some of the applications built include: Stopwatch, Calendar Display, Loan Repayment Calculator, Flash Card Math Game, Database Input Screen, Statistics Calculator, Tic-Tac-Toe Game, Capital City Quiz, Information Tracker (with plotting), Blackjack, Line, Bar and Pie charts, a version of the first video game ever - Pong, and a Telephone Directory.<br /> <br /> LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS is presented using a combination of over 1,100 pages of color course notes and over 100 practical Java GUI examples and applications. To grasp the concepts presented in LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS, you should have had some exposure to Java programming concepts. We offer two beginning Java programming tutorials, BEGINNING JAVA and JAVA FOR KIDS that would help you gain this needed exposure.<br /> <br /> This course requires Microsoft Windows, MAC OS X or Linux. To complete this tutorial, you will need to download the Java Development Kit (JDK11) Standard Edition (SE) from Oracle's website. This tutorial also uses NetBeans 11 as the IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for building and testing Java applications which is available from Apache's website. The Java source code and all needed multimedia files are available for download from the publisher's website KidwareSoftware.com after book registration.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"Every computer science teacher knows what a great deal of preparation is required for projects to work for senior students. With these tutorials, the research behind the projects is done by an author who understands the classroom experience. That is extremely rare. I have seen literacy improve dramatically because students cannot get enough of what is being presented. It is a great testament to the authors that they are successful in achieving such levels of engagement with consistency.</em><em> I have used Kidware's Programming Tutorials for over a decade to keep up my own learning. Having used Kidware Software tutorials for the past decade, I have to say that I could not have achieved the level of success which is now applied in the variety of many programming environments which are currently of considerable interest to kids! I thank Kidware Software and its authors for continuing to stand for what is right in the teaching methodologies which work with kids - even today's kids where competition for their attention is now so much an issue."</em> <strong>- Alan Payne, B.A.H., B.Ed., TA Blakelock High School, Oakville, Ontario</strong></p><p><em>"The Learn Java (GUI Applications) For High School Students topics are introduced progressively to ensure that students of different levels can progress at their own pace. Many exercises and problems are weaved into the chapters to maintain student interest and build confidenc​e. Overall, I appreciated your efforts to make the Java product user friendly." </em><strong>- Carly Orr, Computer Science Teacher, Vancouver BC.</strong></p><p><em>"Great Book. Loved it. Very clear, explained difficult concepts clearly and made it easy to understand. Would recommend to everyone. </em><strong>- Bill Walters</strong></p><p><em>"I recently bought LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS and am amazed at how simple you make learning Java. I have been studying and teaching Java for three years and could not get anywhere. I was about to give up when I found your product."​​ </em><strong>- NN, Pretoria, South Africa</strong></p><p><em>"Thank you so much for the tutorial LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS. I think 'brilliant' goes some way to describing it.</em>" <strong>- JS, Sydney, Australia.</strong></p><p><em>"I really enjoy your teaching method in LEARN JAVA (GUI APPLICATIONS). I look forward to continuing with your other products." </em><strong>- CK, Orlando, Florida.</strong></p><br>
