Summary

Written for complete beginners learning Java on their own, this book uses plain language and engaging examples to explain what you need to know to write programs in Java.

The book has 18 chapters in four parts. The Basics part covers data types, operators, and more; the Intermediate part covers arrays, object-oriented programming, exception handling, and more; the Advanced part covers Swing programming, threads, and more; and the Project part walks through building a development plan management system. Concepts are explained through concrete examples, and the code is thoroughly commented, so readers can grasp the essentials of Java programming with ease and quickly raise their programming skills.

Editor's review

Written by the well-known Mingri Science and Technology team and published by Posts & Telecom Press, Java Complete Self-Study Tutorial is a comprehensive introductory guide to Java programming for beginners. Centered on Java 17, it systematically covers the full knowledge system from basic syntax and object-oriented programming to advanced features, including exception handling, the collections framework, I/O streams, multithreading, network programming, and GUI development. Its clear structure follows a theory + example + hands-on exercise model that helps readers build solid programming thinking and practical ability. As a self-study tutorial, its strengths lie in detailed steps, abundant cases, and accompanying learning resources, offering self-motivated beginners a relatively smooth learning path. Note, however, that because the Java ecosystem is vast and fast-changing, the book focuses on building a solid core foundation and covers the deep integration of some cutting-edge frameworks (such as the Spring ecosystem) only lightly. Overall, this is a solid, comprehensive introductory reference for readers who want to build a Java knowledge system through systematic study.

Who it's for

A good fit for

Complete beginners with no programming background who want to learn Java systematically
Computer science students seeking a hands-on textbook to accompany their coursework
Junior programmers looking to move to Java from another language
Hobbyists who want a clearly structured, example-rich reference for self-study and lookup

Not a good fit for

Intermediate and advanced developers seeking in-depth, hands-on guides to the latest Java frameworks (such as Spring Boot and microservice architecture)
Readers who want to quickly master specialized skills in a specific area (such as Android development or big data processing)

Reading tips

Follow the chapters in order, and be sure to run the sample code and complete the end-of-chapter exercises to consolidate your understanding.
As you study, consult the official documentation or online programming communities to explore the core classes and methods mentioned in the book in greater depth.
After finishing the basics, choose advanced topics that match your interests (such as web development or mobile apps) for targeted study and practice.
