About the Book

"The Object of Java" embraces the object-oriented paradigm by taking an "objects-centric" approach to presenting problem solving and programming. Readers begin with four chapters focusing on objects, classes and methods. The presentation of primitive data occurs in Chapter 5, ensuring the necessary prior exposure to object declaration, object instantiation, assignment, method calling, parameter passage, class diagrams and object diagrams. Since specifications are critical for conveying code behaviour in the object-oriented model, discussions of method preconditions and postconditions, and class invariants are used to document examples and to define example classes. The Unified Modelling Language is used as the specification language.
