Top Java Books to Learn Java Programming<\/p><\/div>\n

What is the Java Programming Language?<\/h3>\n

Java is a programming Language<\/em>. It was created by James Gosling from Sun Microsystems (Sun) in 1991. The main thing about learning Java is that it writes the program once. Then it runs this program on multiple operating systems.<\/p>\n

1. Head First Java<\/h4>\n

\"Head<\/a>by Kathy Sierra & Bert Bates<\/em><\/p>\n

Among all the Java books, the best part of this book is its simplicity. Although it has easily<\/span> related Java concepts in real life. Also, we can say that this book needs to be updated<\/span> with all the recent changes. Although this Java book is best for understanding the OOPS concepts.
\nTo make the learning and memorizing tasks easier, this book contains mysterious problems, numerous puzzles, striking visuals, and particular soul-searching interviews for making computer programming more playful and engaging. The book is a good choice for new programmers and those who want to improve their programming knowledge.<\/div>\n

2. Introduction to Programming Using Java, the 7th Edition<\/h4>\n

\"Introduction<\/a>by\u00a0David J. Eck<\/em><\/p>\n

Basically<\/span>, this Java book is for beginner programmers. Although, good for experienced programmers also. But only for those who want to learn a little about Java. In the 7th edition, it also contains Java 8.<\/div>\n
The book includes chapters: Programming in the Small I-Names and Things, Control, Subroutines, Objects and Classes, Introduction to GUI Programming, Arrays and ArrayLists, Correctness, Robustness, Efficiency, Linked Data Structures and Recursion, Generic Programming and Collection Classes, Advanced Input\/Output: Streams, Files, and Networking, and Threads and Multiprocessing, Advanced GUI Programming.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

3. Java: The Legend<\/h4>\n

\"Java-<\/a>by Ben Evans<\/em><\/p>\n

As we know, Java has come a long way in the last 20 years. Also, Java is no longer the fancy language of developers. Although it has now become mainstream in any development in the world. Moreover, the use of Java in Android has taken Java into an even larger domain.
\nThe book covers several topics, such as how Java has provided benefits from early design decisions, including “Write Once, Run Anywhere” and an insistence on backward compatibility, the effect of open source, the great success and continued requirement of the Java Virtual Machine and platform, the rise of Enterprise Java, and the launch of the Java developer community and ecosystem.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

<\/h4>\n

4. Introduction to Programming Using Java, Sixth Edition<\/h4>\n

\"Introduction<\/a>by\u00a0David J. Eck<\/em><\/p>\n

Basically, we can say this is the best book compared to other Java books. This book provides another free Java book. That is available in both PDF and HTML formats. It teaches programming basics using the Java programming language.
\nThe sixth edition needs Java 5.0 and can also be utilized with later versions of Java. Almost all the examples in the book will run with Java 5.0, but some characteristics from later versions of Java are also covered. You will detect many Java applets on the web pages that create this book, and most of those applets need Java 5.0 or higher to run.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

6. Object-Oriented vs. Functional Programming<\/h4>\n

\"Object<\/a>by Richard Warburton<\/em><\/p>\n

Generally, this Java book helps to learn the differences between object-oriented and functional programming. As we can say, Java 8 started supporting functional programming concepts. For Example –\u00a0<\/strong>Lambda Expressions,\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>Map, Flat map, Reduce, etc
\nYou will learn how lambdas create OOP languages better suitable for dealing with parallelism and concurrency, get to know the process of SOLID\u2014OOP\u2019s five basic principles of programming\u2014map to functional languages and paradigms, find certain common OOP design patterns, and how they remain in the functional world.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
