Title: Too much unhelpful text
Review: This was the class textbook for a data structures course I took that was taught in Java. If you have a lot of time on your hands, the book could be an OK overview of Java, but it requires too much reading to get the point across. It also doesn't explain the basics of getting yourself set-up well. I instead relied on online resources to learn the language, and I could have done without buying this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
