A. Review of Java
This appendix is intended as a review of basic Java. While it is not possible to stuff an entire CS1 course into one appendix, this should get the reader up to speed on material that may have been glossed over, omitted, or forgotten since the first course. It should be enough for anyone who has taken a first course in C/C++ to make the transition to Java. Object-oriented programming is not addressed herethat is the subject of the first three chapters of this book.
