Information Systems Programming with Java

This long awaited revision provides an introductory programming experience in Java for courses offered in IS (CIS, MIS, BIS/, IT, and CS programs at both the undergraduate and graduate (MBA) levels. This book gets students writing object-oriented Java programs early using IS applications, while building the essential problem-solving and programming skills required for today's IS solutions. Using strong pedagogy, including an accessible writing style, the author introduces objects early by developing classes and objects, as well as compiling and running Java programs in Chapter 1.

Information Systems Programming with Java^™ comes with a student CD, including the latest version of the SDK Standard Edition Version 1.4.1 X, Sun^™ ONE Studio 4 Update 1, Community Edition, and text source code. Further, it offers a Companion Website containing extra assessment questions and links to valuable web resources, as well as a full complement of Instructor Resources, including PowerPoint slides and a test bank.

New to this Edition

• Completely rewritten to conform to current Java and IS technology
• Two new chapters on Object Oriented Programming Chapters 8 and 9
