        The PDF file and printouts that are made from it do not show the Java applets that are embedded throughout the text. In most places where an applet should appear, you will see a message such as "Sorry, but your Web browser does not support Java." Also not included are Java source code examples from Appendix 3 of the text and solutions to the quizzes and programming exercises. The real version of the textbook is on-line, to be read with a Web browser. Version 3.1 contains only minor corrections from Version 3.0, which was released in May 2000. Version 3.1 was released in February 2001, and some additional corrections were incorporated in June 2004.
