Product Description
Java for Engineers and Scientists, Second Edition
Book Description
Presenting Java details on a need to know basis, this concise introduction to Java develops and executes practical examples useful for solving problems in an engineering environment. KEY TOPICS Focused on the proper way to write reliable Java programs, it outlines excellent software development practices; uses a top-down design technique to break the program up into logical portions; and demonstrates object re-usability by building later examples on the classes and methods created in earlier examples. The book also includes a number of supporting classes to make it easier for engineers to format numbers in Java, to display data in linear or logarithmic plots, to work with complex numbers, to manipulate arrays, and to perform such common engineering calculations as FFTs, convolutions, correlations, etc. Engineering and Science professionals.

4 of 5 stars  After the first weekend...
Monday, November 22, 2004
This book begins by showing how to implement procedural algorithms in Java. The early examples are short and understandable by those familiar with C or fortran. The commenting style is clean and concise.

I have found the object-oriented portions to also be very helpful and I plan to spend more time with these sections. At first glance the emphasis seems to be on plotting data. A medium-sized scientific simulation example incorporating multiple related classes would be a great way to illustrate the design and programming suggestions made by the author.

I was UNABLE to access the book's web site (www.prenhall.com/author_chapman/) or find any links to the plotting package.

Overall, this was a great book for where I am on the learning curve. I would like to see how it all comes together for a more complex physical simulation.
