Summary

This Java-based book is designed for beginning programmers, using game programming as a central tool to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. The new edition updates GUI interface chapters from Swing to FX-based programs. The game programming integration does not compromise the traditional programming material, allowing instructors unfamiliar with game programming to leverage its pedagogical benefits. The book assumes no prior programming experience.Starting with an introduction, the course progresses through variables, input/output, calculations, methods, classes, objects, boolean expressions, and decision-making. It then covers loops, arrays, advanced object-oriented concepts, inheritance, recursion, and exceptions. The latter part focuses on graphical user interfaces, generics, the API collection framework, multithreading, and concurrency.By the end of the course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of Java programming, enhanced by practical game programming applications. This approach not only makes learning more engaging but also provides a solid foundation for more advanced Java programming concepts.

    As popular as birdhouses are, many are designed with aesthetics in mind, rather than the bird's preferences and needs. Not so for the projects in Making Bird-Friendly Birdhouses. Lifelong birder Mel "Bird Man Mel" Toellner and pro woodworker Matt Maguire walk readers step-by-step through 15+ projects for safe birdhouses that birds find conducive to their natural nesting habitats. They begin with a comprehensive introduction to why birdhouses are so important, and why the birdhouses should be created with specific birds in mind like bluebirds, wrens, chickadees, owls and even bats! With additional sections on distribution maps, detailed plans, mounting instructions, and tips on attracting birds to your yard, it has everything you need to create a successful backyard haven for your winged friends.
