Book Description

This is the second in a series of books which introduce their readers in a natural and systematic way to the world of computer programming. This book teaches computer programming with the C# programming language. Pronounced "see sharp", this language is the latest important programming language in the computer world. While studying computer programming with this book, the reader does not necessarily require any previous knowledge about the subject. The basic operating principles of computers are taught before the actual studies of computer programming begin. All the examples of computer programs are written so that the reader encounters a lot of natural-language expressions instead of the traditional abbreviations of the computer world. This approach aims to make learning easier. The pages of the book are designed to maximize readability and understandability. Examples of computer programs are presented in easy-to-read graphical descriptions. Because the pages of the book are large, example programs can be presented in a more reader-friendly way than in traditional programming books. In addition, pages are written so that the reader does not need to turn them unnecessarily. The electronic material that is available for the readers of this book includes 250 C# computer programs of which 101 are example programs presented on the pages of the book. Almost one hundred programs are provided as solutions to programming exercises. The rest of the programs are extra programs for interested readers. When you study computer programming, you need special programming tools in your personal computer. This book explains how the reader can download free programming tools from the Internet. Alternatively, the reader can work with commercial programming tools. Although this book is designed to be an easy book for beginners in the field of computer programming, it may be useful for more experienced programmers as well. More experienced people might not need to read every paragraph of the body text. Instead, they could proceed more quickly and concentrate on the example programs which are explained with special text bubbles. The book has a 14-page index which should help people to find information about certain features of the C# langauge.

Book Description

This textbook is an ideal introduction in college courses or self-study for learning computer programming using the C language. Written for those with minimal or no programming experience, Computer Programming in C for Beginners offers a heavily guided, hands-on approach that enables the reader to quickly start programming, and then progresses to cover the major concepts of C programming that are critical for an early stage programmer to know and understand. While the progression of topics is conventional, their treatment is innovative and designed for rapid understanding of the many concepts in C that have traditionally proven difficult for beginners, such as variable typing and scope, function definition, passing by value, pointers, passing by reference, arrays, structures, basic memory management, dynamic memory allocation, and linked lists, as well as an introductory treatment of searching and sorting algorithms. Written in an informal but clear narrative, the book uses extensive examples throughout and provides detailed guidance on how to write the C code to achieve the objectives of the example problems. Derived from the author’s many years of teaching hands-on college courses, it encourages the reader to follow along by programming the progressively more complex exercise programs presented. In some sections, errors are purposely inserted into the code to teach the reader about the common pitfalls of programming in general, and the C language in particular.

Book Description

Introduction to Computer Programming with Visual Basic 6: A Problem-Solving Approach is written for students with little or no programming experience. This comprehensive text equips students with the skills necessary to develop computer applications in any language by helping them develop a framework for creating programs. Each chapter illustrates the application of this framework from Step 1 (Analysis) to Step 6 (Completing the Documentation) through a programming case study. The authors emphasize the program development life cycle and fundamental programming concepts such as data types, loops, decisions, and arrays. FEATURES To further highlight the authors' emphasis on programming concepts instead of GUI elements, a limited number of program controls are used in the examples. To provide greater flexibility to instructors, more GUI elements are included in Appendix A, "Visual Basic User Interface Objects." The preface and the Instructor's Resource Manual provide teaching tips on how to incorporate the controls presented in Appendix A in lab exercises or projects Object-Event Diagrams are introduced in Chapter 1 to help students understand the importance of events Two chapters on database programming (Chapter 10 and 11) offer students the skills needed to develop more robust database applications Chapter 12 is devoted to fundamental object-oriented programming concepts and techniques for developing object-oriented programs in Visual Basic to reinforce this new standard for developing software The authors offer outstanding pedagogical aids such as common examples that build on previous concepts, a multitude of end-of-chapter short answer and programming exercises, and plenty of programming projects

Book Description

This book is suitable for use in a university-level first course in computing (CS1), as well as the increasingly popular course known as CS0. It is difficult for many students to master basic concepts in computer science and programming. A large portion of the confusion can be blamed on the complexity of the tools and materials that are traditionally used to teach CS1 and CS2. This textbook was written with a single overarching goal: to present the core concepts of computer science as simply as possible without being simplistic.

Book Description

Despite growing interest, basic information on methods and models for mathematically analyzing algorithms has rarely been directly accessible to practitioners, researchers, or students. An Introduction to the Analysis of Algorithms, Second Edition, organizes and presents that knowledge, fully introducing primary techniques and results in the field. Robert Sedgewick and the late Philippe Flajolet have drawn from both classical mathematics and computer science, integrating discrete mathematics, elementary real analysis, combinatorics, algorithms, and data structures. They emphasize the mathematics needed to support scientific studies that can serve as the basis for predicting algorithm performance and for comparing different algorithms on the basis of performance. Techniques covered in the first half of the book include recurrences, generating functions, asymptotics, and analytic combinatorics. Structures studied in the second half of the book include permutations, trees, strings, tries, and mappings. Numerous examples are included throughout to illustrate applications to the analysis of algorithms that are playing a critical role in the evolution of our modern computational infrastructure. Improvements and additions in this new edition include Upgraded figures and code An all-new chapter introducing analytic combinatorics Simplified derivations via analytic combinatorics throughout The book’s thorough, self-contained coverage will help readers appreciate the field’s challenges, prepare them for advanced results—covered in their monograph Analytic Combinatorics and in Donald Knuth’s The Art of Computer Programming books—and provide the background they need to keep abreast of new research. "[Sedgewick and Flajolet] are not only worldwide leaders of the field, they also are masters of exposition. I am sure that every serious computer scientist will find this book rewarding in many ways." —From the Foreword by Donald E. Knuth
