Explore the Java Virtual Machine with modern programming languages About This Book This guide provides in-depth coverage of the Java Virtual Machine and its features Filled with practical examples, this book will help you understand the core concepts of Java, Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, and Groovy Work with various programming paradigms and gain knowledge about imperative, object-oriented and functional programming Who This Book Is For This book is meant for programmers who are interested in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and want to learn more about the most popular programming languages that can be used for JVM development. Basic practical knowledge of a modern programming language that supports object-oriented programming (JavaScript, Python, C#, VB.NET, and C++) is assumed. What You Will Learn Gain practical information about the Java Virtual Machine Understand the popular JVM languages and the Java Class Library Get to know about various programming paradigms such as imperative, object-oriented, and functional Work with common JVM tools such as Eclipse IDE, Gradle, and Maven Explore frameworks such as SparkJava, Vert.x, Akka and JavaFX Boost your knowledge about dialects of other well-known programming languages that run on the JVM, including JavaScript, Python, and Ruby In Detail Anyone who knows software development knows about the Java Virtual Machine. The Java Virtual Machine is responsible for interpreting Java byte code and translating it into actions. In the beginning, Java was the only programming language used for the JVM. But increasing complexity of the language and the remarkable performance of the JVM created an opening for a new generation of programming languages. If you want to build a strong foundation with the Java Virtual Machine and get started with popular modern programming languages, then this book is for you. The book will begin with a general introduction of the JVM and its features, which are common to the JVM languages, helping you get abreast with its concepts. It will then dive into explaining languages such as Java, Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, and Groovy and will show how to work with each language, their features, use cases, and pros and cons. By writing example projects in those languages and focusing on each language's strong points, it will help you find the programming language that is most appropriate for your particular needs. By the end of the book, you will have written multiple programs that run on the Java Virtual Machine and know about the differences between the various languages. Style and approach This practical, example-filled guide will help you get started with the JVM and some of its most popular languages.

*Chosen Few is a Blood Brothers crossover series and can be read as a standalone* Rami is the first book in the steamy, heart-stopping romantic suspense Chosen Few series. Rami is an action-packed story of rescue, survival and passion. Rami's protective character decimates the pages and delivers a satisfying HEA. ★Protector hero ★Kidnapped ★Ex-black ops ★Scarred ★Satisfying HEA The moment he found her was the moment he lost himself . . . 16 days of captivity. The amount of drugs pumped into Ivy Hastings starved and beaten body should’ve been enough to kill her. Instead, a man breaking into her hellhole of a prison might be what stops her heart. His rough, dark and dangerous tattooed face is enough to promise death. She tries to stab him with a nail, but he’s too quick. Releasing her bindings before she can blink. He’s not the same man who injects fiery drugs through her veins, day after day. No, this man is different. His clear blue eyes ensnarl her heart. His large, warm body is a safe haven she forgot existed. Every time she’s gifted with the intensity of his gaze, she forgets the four dirty walls she almost died in. He’s an angel cloaked in danger. A dark angel that saved her soul. And he stirs something untouched inside her. Rami Mitry turned down the job. He’d been convinced, but not for the right reason. He’d done it for money. He was no hero. But as Ivy’s life teeters in the balance, he prays to a God he’d never been sure of until now. Ivy’s emerald green eyes possess a strength that he’s never witnessed—even on the battlefield. Somehow, she remains unbroken, and his admiration for her quickly flames into an inferno of desire. But the Cartel is close. Too many men were killed while rescuing her. The Cartel won’t stop until they’ve gotten retribution. Rami might have saved Ivy from a life of slavery, only to bring her to a quicker death at the Cartel’s hands. This is no longer an act of abuse—it's warfare. And he’ll fight to the death to protect what’s his.
