本書是暢銷書《C 語言教學手冊》姊妹作，做為帶您進入 Java 程式語言世界的墊腳石，從 Java 的基礎開始，循序漸進地引導您學習 Java 程式設計，然後一步步地深入瞭解 Java 的應用。透過本書，您將掌握 Java 的基本語法、物件導向程式設計（OOP）的概念與實作，以及 Java 集合物件、多執行緒等進階主題與應用。 本書經過歷次改版，去蕪存菁，在實作上更與時俱進，使用廣受業界工程師喜愛的 Visual Studio Code(以下簡稱 VSCode) 作為開發環境，VSCode 具有跨平台、跨語言、輕量、豐富延伸套件及內建除錯器的特色，不但可以提升學習成效，也能與未來業界接軌。 本書撰寫過程中經過多位學生試讀並實作總數超過 300 題的習題，參考相當多的建議修正，使得內容具親和性、學習起來更加得心應手。 本書特色 □ 使用 VSCode 開發與業界接軌 □ 超過 300 題習題反覆練到會 □ 詳細圖解說明觀念最清晰 □ 多執行緒、集合等進階主題 □ 經課堂試教、試讀、試做驗證

內容特色：深入淺出引導教學，掌握程式語言的各種設計技巧由於Java具備獨立於任何系統平台的特性，使得它適合Internet這種分散式且具異質性架構的運算環境，因此Java受到了許多程式設計師的青睞，到現在它已經成為最廣泛使用的開發技術之一。目前Java的應用範圍除了Internet的Web開發領域之外，它還具備一般程式語言的全部功能，甚至可能更強。例如：在企業級應用環境中，如金融、電信、保險等複雜環境中，面對高度的業務複雜性，百萬、千萬甚至更高的使用壓力下，利用Java技術所開發的應用系統都展現極佳的執行效能。純粹作為語言來講Java並不具備所有的優勢，但如果在系統規畫時，考慮將系統部署在非Windows平台上，同時也希望具有：一次編譯，隨處執行（Compile once, run anywhere）的特性，那麼Java技術就是首選。像其他程式語言一樣，撰寫Java程式語言也可被用來發展各種應用，本書重點介紹Java Application的開發，從流程控制、陣列、演算法、類別物件、繼承介面、資料輸出輸入、網路程式設計、資料庫存取、使用者介面開發等等，都有深入淺出的介紹。

‧基於Java 17 LTS版本！涵蓋Java 15至17新特性 ‧增加HTTP Client API介紹 ‧作者十幾年實務教育訓練中，匯整學員遇到的觀念、實作、應用等問題的經驗集合。 ‧必要時從Java SE API的原始碼分析，了解各語法在Java SE API中如何應用。 ‧涵蓋Java 15至17的文字區塊、模式比對、record/sealed等新特性。 ‧建議練習的範例提供Lab檔案，更能掌握練習重點。 ‧IDE操作為本書教學內容之一，更能與實務結合。

有哪些常見的資料結構？陣列(Array)、鏈結串列(Linked List)、堆疊(Stack)、佇列(Queue)、樹(Tree)、圖(Graph)、堆積(Heap)、雜湊表(Hash table)等。這是一個資料暢行、訊息傳遞快速的世界。本書以Java程式語言為實作對象，以圖像解說呈現資料結構的概念與運作，藉由Java程式語言的特色和語法來豐富資料結構的內涵，是學習資料結構最佳入門書。全書重要主題如下：●以直白、易懂的Java語言演示敘述、語法和範例●範例皆有完整的程式碼，邊做邊學，學與做相互並行，不只能輕鬆上手，更能加快學習成效●提供資料結構多樣性解說和詮釋，使用Java程式語言，把理論化繁為簡，讓學習者能全盤掌握●圖像解說一目了然，資料呈現以表格做條理化，按部就班的步驟，讓程式範例說明立體化，學習者跟上就能學會●各章節末皆有針對內容的課後習作，包含測驗和實作題型，規劃自己的學習進度，練習或加強學習知識的範疇期能把握住最嚴謹的態度，輔以最精要的表達方式，降低閱讀的壓力，筆者深信本書能讓學習者對資料結構有更多收穫。

內容介紹: 15 年的淬鍊，成就「初學 Java 的最佳入門教材」本書從第一版出版至今已超過 15 個年頭, 累積銷量超過 5 萬冊, 是最受好評的 Java 入門教材。期間配合 Java 版本的演進歷經多次改版, 每次改版都匯集了眾多讀者、教師的意見, 適當增加了新的題材與語法, 同時也因應不同世代的需求, 刪除過時的內容, 務求讓書中內容更簡明易懂、更符合初學者的需求。Java 語言一直是企業界最愛用的語言, 因此我們期許讀者不僅撰寫出可編譯、可執行的 Java 程式, 更重要的是要瞭解良好的程式設計方法, 以及軟體設計的邏輯思維, 才能快速融入開發團隊, 成為符合業界需求的程式設計師。具備良好的程式設計方法, 建立正確的物件導向概念, 才能真正寫好 Java 程式Java 是物件導向的程式語言, 學習正確的物件導向觀念非常重要, 本書在介紹類別、物件、繼承、介面、套件、類別庫、集合等主題時, 均特別著重觀念的解析與釐清, 並引用各種實例來演示及驗證所學, 以確保能學會最紮實的物件導向觀念。書中以圖文搭配豐富的範例進行解說, 處處可見「正確」、「錯誤」的實作案例對照, 清楚展示各種語言元素的變化用法與差異, 讓讀者從「做」中體會物件導向程式的精髓, 非常適合作為初學入門、紮穩基礎的第一本書。本書特色: ★ 本書內容適用 JDK 17/11 等主要版本 ★◆ 清楚詳盡的語法解說針對 Java 的資料型別、變數存取、及各種語法均有清楚詳盡的解說, 各單元均提供眾多的範例程式, 以強化學習效果並培養程式撰寫能力, 非常適合做為初學者的入門學習書。◆ 最紮實的物件導向觀念最易懂的物件導向觀念, 引用各種實例來介紹類別、物件、繼承、介面、套件、類別庫、集合的使用方式, 並釐清容易混淆的重要觀念, 以確保能紮穩正確清楚的物件導向觀念。◆ 業界常用的進階語法與實用主題除了基本語法和觀念外, 也涵括了字串的規則表示法、Varargs 可變參數、基本型別的自動封箱 (Auto Boxing) 與拆箱 (Unboxing)、static 成員、抽象類別、匿名類別、Lambda 運算式、多執行緒、Collection 類別庫、Java AWT/Swing 圖形介面設計、2D 繪圖等實用主題。◆ 精心設計的 3 種強化學習單元每章最後均包含以下單元：(1)綜合演

自從Oracle接手Java的發展之後，Java開始了天翻地覆的變化，加入了許多新功能，這些新功能都是為了跟上最新流行的程式語言與新型態的發布、維護架構。其中最重要的就是SE8的Lambda運算式與SE9的模組（module）。 自SE9開始，Oracle就採取敏捷開發的精神，每半年就發布一個新版本，不過這些大多是非長期支援版本，新版本一旦發布，舊的非長期支援版本就無法下載JDK了。所以開發與學習

自從Oracle接手Java的發展之後，Java開始了天翻地覆的變化，加入了許多新功能，這些新功能都是為了跟上最新流行的程式語言與新型態的發布、維護架構。其中最重要的就是SE8的Lambda運算式與SE9的模組（module）。自SE9開始，Oracle就採取敏捷開發的精神，每半年就發布一個新版本，不過這些大多是非長期支援版本，新版本一旦發布，舊的非長期支援版本就無法下載JDK了。所以開發與學習的首選通常以長期支援版本為主。依據Oracle的規劃，長期支援版本會在三年左右的時間發布，其中，SE11及SE17都是長期支援版本（LTS），本書的改版政策也跟隨此政策，只會推出適用於長期支援版本的書籍。Java的新功能眾多，如何將這些新功能完美融入原有功能的講解是本書的重點，例如本書將Lambda運算式放在第十五章，讓讀者可以於學習過內部匿名類別後才學習如何利用Lambda運算式來取代內部匿名類別，並應用於視窗程式（事件傾聽處理）。本書將模組（module）放在第十一章的類別庫（package）之後，讓讀者理解如何透過模組來保護類別庫。至於SE10新增的小功能：var型態推斷宣告更是被不露痕跡地加入到第三章與第十五章，因為在SE11時，var型態推斷宣告已經被推廣至Lambda運算式，免除了程式設計師為了回傳值型態還需查閱手冊的麻煩。本書改版自暢銷數萬本的《初學指引》系列，從SE8版開始更名為《掌握》系列。這是因為作者認為本書已經不再適用於只想學些皮毛的讀者，而是期望將讀者由初學者導引成為Java初級工程師，要做到這一點，就應該在第一本學習書籍當中，充分掌握Java的設計精隨以及關鍵基礎技術，故重新命名為《掌握》系列。本書以細心規劃的進度，培養讀者在十六周的學習中，成功變身為Java初級工程師，同時釐清一些對於初學者容易產生困擾的技術。同時本書也搭配精心設計的累積式習題，讓讀者能夠循序漸進地真正成為一位Java程式設計師。本書的特色如下:．長支援版．內容由淺入深．整合模組與類別庫．釐清複雜的泛型等語法．Java SE7到SE11/17的無縫接軌．釐清函數式介面與抽象類別的差異．釐清匿名類別與Lambda運算式的適用場合．釐清Java只有傳值呼叫，沒有如同C#的傳參考呼叫．透過「Coding偷撇步、注意事項」加強讀者的程式設計實務經驗．透過「延伸學習」明確引導讀者，未來的學習

Is a lion still a lion if he wears a hat? With whimsical illustrations and a nod to earlier classics, Polly Dunbar celebrates the shrewd mind of a child — and the power of saying no.Is a lion still a lion . . . if he skips down the street singing "Hoobie-doobie-doo"?Dapper in his hat and flourishing a cane, a very large lion invites himself inside, inquires about Auntie Sue, and spins the two children of the house around the room in a silly dance. He doesn’t mind at all if they invite him to lunch, where he gobbles up all his greens and devours the plate, too. When he leans in to ask for dessert, his sharp teeth gleam oh so pearly white, and it seems very possible that he may just bite. . . . Surely it’s time to go-go-go — until, that is, the brave little girl finds her voice in a most satisfying way. The Cat in the Hat meets Pierre meets The Tiger Who Came to Tea in this rollicking story with an exhilarating ending.
