In Java Examples in a Nutshell, David Flanagan, the bestselling author of Java in a Nutshell, has created an entire book of programs that not only serve as great learning tools, but can also be modified for individual use. The second edition covers Java 1.3, and contains 164 complete, practical examples: over 17,900 lines of densely commented, professionally written Java code covering 20 distinct Java API's, including Servlets, JavaServer Pages, XML, Swing, and Java 2D. Like the first edition, it's full of programs that demonstrate the core Java classes. This book is a companion volume to Java in a Nutshell, Java Foundation Classes in a Nutshell, and Java Enterprise in a Nutshell, While those books are quick references at heart, they each include accelerated tutorials on various Java topics. Java Examples in a Nutshell picks up where those books leave off, serving up a suite of example programs for novice Java programmers and experts alike.
