Very wordy, but the textbook excericses should help

Im halfway through my intro to programming class in java, and Im using this textbook. Many of the chapters are kind of lengthy and can be explained in less words and be split into more chapters (For my class, we do a chapter a week (only chapters 1-7 for me), and most of them are easily 60-100 pages). The "Code Listings" do go a long way in demonstrating a concept to you, but the programming challenges tend to be a little complicated with the information that is provided to you in each chapter. I think this textbook should include more examples on a program that one of the programming challenges require you to build to balance it out with the demonstration of the concepts of each sub heading, so that way you understand how to start out building the program you're on, along with some hints and a checklist to guide you in doing so. The graphics and tables are pretty good in delivering the points to you, so those aren't a problem. There are checkpoints at the end of each chapter that review the material taught to you, so I recommend you do those, but most, if not all, dont give you the answer. I had to look them up or find a tutorial on them. I have the "Head First Java" book as well and what it has that this book does not have is how to use an IDE. EVERY computer science textbook should have a section on how to use an IDE. If you do need this book or plan on getting it, expect a lot of reading! If you're still browsing for a java book, I suggest this be your last resort if you cant find anything.

Very good book

I am learning the language and this book is self explanatory. I mean it has tons of examples that you can practice on and the good thing about it is that the book explain step by step every example. So, You can see the logic involve. I really recommend this book.
