Advanced Do-It-Yourself Java Games: An Introduction to Java Threads and Animated Video Games: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Advanced Do-It-Yourself Java Games: An Introduction to Java Threads and Animated Video Games" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Advanced Do-It-Yourself Java Games: An Introduction to Java Threads and Animated Video Games is the third book of the Do-It-Yourself Java Games series. The previous book in the series, More Do-It-Yourself Java Games, taught event-driven programming. Those games started with an initial window, then waited for the program user to take an action. The games in this book require the same kind of event-driven user interfaces, but add threads to perform automated, simultaneous activities, whether the user takes an action or not.Youll learn more advanced programming techniques as you create 8 new games with sound and animation. Youll learn to use abstract classes, interfaces, state-driven programming, and the model/view/controller design.This book assumes you either have experience creating event-driven user interfaces with Java Swing or you have read the second book, More Do-It-Yourself Java Games: An Introduction to Java Graphics and Event-Driven Programming.The Do-It-Yourself Java Games series of books uses a unique discovery learning approach to teach computer programming: learn Java programming techniques more by doing Java programming than by reading about them. Through extensive use of fill-in blanks, with easy one-click access to answers, you will be guided to write complete programs yourself, starting with the first lesson. Youll create puzzle and game programs and discover how, when, and why Java programs are written the way they are.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Introduction
This is the third book in the Do-It-Yourself Java Games series. The first book's programs were text-based so you could develop basic Java programming skills. The second book, More Do-It-Yourself Java Games, covered a wide variety of to perform automated, simultaneous activities, whether the user takes an action or not.
This book introduces several advanced programming techniques:
  • Use threads to .
  • Understand the used by Java's graphical user interface.
  • Use advanced Java types: and interfaces.
  • Use to manage all the game activity.
  • Separate the user interface from the program logic by using design.
The games in this book will also serve as a great foundation for many other games. Once you complete a project, feel free to modify it to create other games. Half the fun of programming is making programs do what you want them to do.
As in the previous books in this series, the lessons in each project are presented using a try-it approach: do the steps shown and see what happens. You'll be given programming tasks, each followed by a program . The listings have fill-in blanks to allow you to write much of the code yourself. But don't worry if you're unsure of how to fill in the blanks; simply click the completed listing's link to see the missing code.
Don't skip any lessons. Each lesson explains a new programming technique, which may be used again in later lessons. Doing all the lessons will make later lessons easier.
