Java for Students Author : Doug Bell Publisher : Pearson Educación Total Pages : 634 Release : 2001 ISBN 10 : 9702601444 ISBN 13 : 9789702601449 Language : EN, FR, DE, ES & NL GET BOOK Java for Students Book Description: Aware that many students need a careful introduction to programming and that they respond well to graphical illustration, this concise book adopts a visual approach to programming. Throughout the text, programs that use graphical images are emphasized to clearly demonstrate all the important programming principles. The authors use a spiral approach to programming concepts; introducing concepts simply early on, then in a more sophisticated way later, (e.g., objects are integrated throughout five chapters). Java for Students emphasizes the use of applets but also shows how to program free-standing applications. The authors have been careful to put together a text that covers the powerful features of Java and presents the language to students as both a fun and useful tool.

Il 2012 vede il Crimine della Casa Vuota in cui Undershaw, un tempo casa di Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, si trova in degrado e a rischio di essere distrutta per sempre. Commissionata da Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stesso, Undershaw ha assistito alla creazione di molte delle sue opere più famose, incluso Il mastino dei Baskerville e Il ritorno di Sherlock Holmes. É un edificio che merita di essere preservato, per la nazione Britannica, e per il mondo intero, per sempre. Purtroppo, al momento, l'edificio è minacciato dagli imprenditori edilizi, che intendono dividere la casa in tre unità separate e costruirne altre cinque. I permessi edilizi per i lavori sono già stati approvati dal Waverley Borough Council. L'Undershaw Preservation Trust, (UPT), con Mark Gatiss (BBC Sherlock) come sostenitore, è un fondo che si occupa della conservazione e protezione di questo edificio di importanza culturale, e sta portando avanti una campagna per revocare questa decisione, affinché la casa possa essere riportata allo splendore originale, e vissuta come la dimora che Sir Arthur Conan Doyle aveva progettato. Questo libro è una raccolta di racconti brevi e poesie su Sherlock Holmes, scritti da fan di tutto il mondo a sostegno della campagna 'Save Undershaw', persino la copertina è stata ideata dai fan. I diritti d'autore del libro sono destinati all' UPT allo scopo di conservare questa meravigliosa abitazione per le future generazioni di fan di Doyle, appassionati di Sherlock Holmes, e amanti della letteratura di tutti i tipi.
