Abstract

The Java programming language is similar to the C++ language - but with some interesting differences. If you are a C++ expert you will be able to zip through this chapter quite fast - chapter 15 deals specifically with the differences between the two languages. If you have used a high level language such as Pascal before you will also find the switch to Java straightforward.
