Java is an object-oriented programming language developed in 1995 by Sun Microsystems. The language has become one of the most popular programming languages in the world (ranked no.2 as per TIOBE Programming Community Index, no.1 on JobsTractor). The language is platform independent, which means that programs made for Mac OS X can run on Windows and Linux, and vice versa. This feature is one of the reasons why Java is the go-to language for most enterprise applications.
Demand for Java programmers is exceptionally high, and most of the senior developer positions require a working knowledge of Java and/or C. So are you willing to polish your Java skills? We bring to you 32 ebooks on Java programming and that too all free!
