Résumé
For courses in Java Programming.
A fundamentals-first introduction to basic programming concepts andtechniques
Introduction to Java Programming and Data Structures seamlessly integrates programming, data structures,and algorithms into one text. With a fundamentals-first approach, the textbuilds a strong foundation of basic programming concepts and techniques beforeteaching students object-oriented programming and advanced Java programming.Liang explains programming in a problem-driven way that focuses on problemsolving rather than syntax, illustrating basic concepts by example andproviding a large number of exercises with various levels of difficulty forstudents to practice. The 12th Edition is completely revised in everydetail to enhance clarity, presentation, content, examples, and exercises.1. Introduction to Computers, Programs, and JavaTM

J. The Big-O, Big-Omega, and Big-Theta NotationsDr. Liang earnedhis Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Oklahoma in 1991, and hisM.S. and B.S. in Computer Science from Fudan University in Shanghai, China in1986 and 1983. Prior to joining Armstrong State University (now merged withGeorgia Southern University), he was an Associate Professor in computer scienceat Purdue University in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where he twice received theExcellence in Research award.
Dr. Liang is currently a Professor of Computer Science at GeorgiaSouthern University. He was trained in theoretical computer science. He haspublished in the SIAM Journal on Computing, Discrete Applied Mathematics, ActaInformatics, and Information Processing Letters. He is the author of more thanthirty books. His popular computer science texts are widely used in the world.
Dr. Liang was elected a Java Champion by Sun Microsystems (nowOracle) in 2005. He has given lectures on programming internationally.
