Summary

Zero-Basis Easy Learning of Java, co-authored by Zhang Hongbo, Ding Weiying, and Zheng Zheng, was published by China Machine Press in October 2018. It is an introductory Java textbook aimed at readers with no prior programming background. The book is divided into 12 chapters, organized in the order of "environment first, syntax next, applications last." It begins with an introduction to the characteristics of the Java language, how it differs from C/C++, the download and installation of the JDK, environment variable configuration, and use of the Eclipse development tool. It then explains the basic structure of Java programs, data types and type conversion, operators and expressions, flow control statements such as selection and loops, as well as one-dimensional arrays, two-dimensional arrays, and methods. The object-oriented section covers classes and objects, the this and static keywords, inner classes, inheritance, overloading and overriding, the super keyword, final, abstract classes and interfaces, packages, and access control. Beyond core syntax, the book also covers the concept and handling of exceptions, multithreading mechanisms, the collections framework, Java input/output (I/O) processing, JDBC database programming, Java network programming, and Swing graphical user interface design. It concludes with an introduction to commonly used Java class libraries and the development process for hands-on projects such as a notepad tool, a network communication tool, and an online photo album. Each chapter includes key point summaries, review questions, and programming exercises to help readers learn through practice and consolidate their knowledge. The book is suitable as an introductory textbook for Java programming courses in universities and related fields, and also for self-learners.

Editor's review

对第一次接触编程的人来说，Java最大的门槛往往不在“面向对象”有多难，而在环境装不起来、第一段代码跑不通。《零基础轻松学Java》把这段最容易劝退的路程铺平了：一开篇就从JDK下载安装、环境变量配置讲到Eclipse的安装与第一个程序的运行流程，配有简单的图示，读者照着操作就能把“Hello World”跑起来，先建立信心，再谈语法。全书12章的结构相当克制，先语法（数据类型、运算符、流程控制、数组与方法），再面向对象（类与对象、继承、接口、包与权限），之后逐一过渡到异常、多线程、集合、I/O、JDBC、网络编程和Swing界面，最后用记事本工具、网络通信工具、在线相册三个项目把知识点串起来。每章都配要点总结、练习题和编程练习，读完一章就能立刻动手验证，符合“边学边练”的入门节奏。需要提醒的是，本书基于出版时的JDK与Eclipse版本，部分截图和工具界面可能与你现在使用的新版本略有出入，跟着操作时以实际界面为准即可。它适合当作第一本Java教材来通读，帮你搭起完整的知识框架；想要深入JVM原理、并发底层或主流框架，还需要在此基础上继续补充进阶读物。

Who it's for

A good fit for

完全没有编程基础的读者，想从零开始系统学Java
在校计算机及相关专业学生，需要一本结构清晰的课程入门教材
从其他语言转学Java、需要快速补齐语法与面向对象基础的开发者
偏好一边看书一边动手敲代码、需要练习题巩固的自学者

Not a good fit for

已具备Java基础、想深入JVM原理、并发底层或框架源码的进阶读者
希望直接学习Spring等主流框架与工程化实践的开发者
只想看讲解视频、不愿动手配置环境和写代码的读者

Reading tips

先按第1章把JDK和Eclipse装好并成功运行第一个程序，环境不通不急着往下读。
每章的练习题与编程练习尽量全部动手敲一遍，遇到报错先自己读异常信息再对照书中讲解。
学完第3章面向对象后回头整理一份笔记，把类、继承、接口、包的关系画成图，效果比反复阅读更好。
第11、12章的项目建议独立重写一遍，再与书中代码对照，检验前面章节的知识是否真正掌握。

FAQ

这本书需要什么基础才能读？

作者定位为零基础入门，不要求学过其他编程语言。只要会基本电脑操作，能按步骤安装JDK、配置环境变量，就可以从第1章开始读。若有一点C或C++基础，前面语法部分会读得更快。

书中的例子用什么开发工具？

书中以Eclipse作为主要开发工具，讲解了Eclipse的安装、启动以及编写Java程序的流程，同时介绍了JDK的下载安装与环境变量配置。读者也可以改用IDEA等工具，语法与示例本身不受影响。

这本书和《零基础学Java》是同一本吗？

不是。书名相似但作者与内容不同：《零基础轻松学Java》由张洪波、丁卫颖、郑铮编著，机械工业出版社2018年出版；《零基础学Java》则是另一个系列，作者与版次均不同，购买时注意核对ISBN。

读完这本书能达到什么水平？

可以掌握Java基础语法、面向对象思想、异常、多线程、集合、I/O、JDBC、网络编程和Swing界面的基本用法，并能完成简单桌面项目。距离企业级开发还需继续学习框架、数据库实战与工程规范。

书中的版本和工具会不会过时？

本书2018年出版，示例基于当时的JDK与Eclipse版本。核心语法知识依然适用，但工具界面和部分API用法可能与你安装的新版本有差异，建议以官方文档和实际运行结果为准。

About the author

张洪波 Author

Zhang Hongbo is an author about whom limited public information is available. Three works are currently confirmed under this name, spanning medicine, examinations, and film and television. Among them, 1000 Questions on Perioperative Nursing is oriented toward clinical nursing practice and sets out key points of perioperative care in a question-and-answer format, reflecting a practical approach to writing. The Principles of the Right to Safety is a theoretical work that discusses the concept of the right to safety as a right. Film and Television Culture and Mirror Rhetoric in the Perspective of All Media starts from the context of all-media and examines film and television culture and rhetorical expression. The wide range of subjects suggests that the author combines practical guidance with theoretical analysis, addressing nursing practitioners, examination candidates, and researchers of film and television culture. As no reliable records of birth and death dates, nationality, education, or professional experience have been found, further details of the author's personal background cannot be provided, and readers may learn about the author's areas of interest and writing characteristics mainly through the works mentioned above.

郑铮 Author

Zheng Zheng is an author about whom limited public information is available. The only confirmed detail is that the author wrote Photoshop CC Practical Training Tutorial, a work classified under general computing. Judging from the title and category, the book focuses on the hands-on use and classroom teaching of the image-editing software Photoshop CC, emphasizing tool operation and case-based practice, which makes it a typical software tutorial. As birth and death dates, nationality, and an English name are all unrecorded, the author's personal background and professional experience cannot be further described. Based on the available work, Zheng Zheng's writing centers on teaching and popularizing applied computer software, with clear step-by-step guidance intended for beginners and training classes. Readers' understanding of the author and the work rests mainly on the practical content of this single tutorial.
