Easy to use and platform-independent, Java is the programming language behind millions of networked applications, with an estimated 3 billion devices currently running Java apps. Stable, robust, and ubiquitous, Java has been the trusted solution for large-scale enterprise applications since its inception more than twenty years ago. It’s also the tool of choice for Android apps, web servers, games, and embedded programs for small devices.about the book
