And note what you will find!...

Java and JavaScript are two separate languages which are often confused, since both of them are used on the Internet and share the term Java. This CD explores examples of applications and objects used in each language so that the distinction between these languages is clearer. They are both covered on this CD and under the two languages you will find:

•  program illustrations and code examples
• projects for you to attempt in each language
• programming instructions and code descriptions
• downloads of written support booklets in word format.
• useful JavaScript tools for you to implement in your own web pages
• useful web links for you to find more advanced utilities Sun's JDK and tutorials.
