How to Think Like a Computer Scientist Java Version

How to Think Like a Computer Scientist Java Version is a good book to learn about programming. The goal of this book is to teach you to think like a computer scientist.

Book Description

I like the way computer scientists think because they combine some of the best features of Mathematics, Engineering, and Natural Science. Like mathematicians, computer scientists use formal languages to denote ideas (specifically computations). Like engineers, they design things, assembling components into systems and evaluating tradeoffs among alternatives. Like scientists, they observe the behavior of complex systems, form hypotheses, and test predictions.
