In Java: The Complete Reference, Ninth Edition, Herb Schildt uses the clear, concise, uncompromising style that has made the previous eight editions so successful worldwide. This comprehensive volume covers the entire language, including its syntax, keywords, and fundamental programming principles. Schildt also presents detailed information about Java's core libraries and key programming techniques. Of course, coverage of new features added by Java 8, such as lambda expressions and modules, are included. Schildt also condenses material pertaining to AWT, shifting the focus to Swing and adding three new chapters on JavaFX, Java's GUI technology.
