The best explanation of packages

This is an excellent introductory Java book. In particular it has the most in-depth discussion concerning how to create one's own packages. Other books twice this size have at most one dinky paragraph stating in effect 'place package PACKAGENAME at the top of the source file'. Well there's a lot more to it than that and this text actually tells you where the compiler looks for files and how to amend the CLASSPATH. I was thoroughly impressed.

Excellent Book for the JAVA novice Programmer

JAVA Sourcebook by Ed, Anuff is an excellent book for stepping into the JAVA programming field. It gives you a very good start into the new terrain of so much talked about java. This book takes you step by step into explaining the concepts of the language and also explains where it differs from other languages, around, on some aspects of the object oriented concept, which is very helpful and it gives you the edge in the learning process. After finishing the book you will be capable of developing your advanced applications and applets in java, using the advanced concepts of language like Graphics, Multimedia etc. I think that it is a worth buy. I would also like to congratulate the author for writing such a excellent book. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to step into the JAVA field and wants a good start
