For introductory courses teaching C++ programming for business.

 

This text provides a student-friendly, highly readable introduction to C++ programming for beginning programming students, especially those majoring in Information Systems and Business. It guides readers through complete and clear descriptions of sample programs, with a wealth of exercises included along the way to help reinforce the important points of each chapter. Throughout the text, a strong emphasis is placed on business applications, rather than those in mathematics or computing.

• Opens with a gentle introduction to standard, non-object-oriented C++ – Builds a strong foundation in basic programming skills–then eases into discussions on object-oriented C++.

• Guides students step-by-step through clear, accessible explanations of concepts.

• Includes exercise sets with each section to offer frequent opportunities to challenge and reinforce recently acquired skills.

• Designs programming problems and examples specifically for today's business student.

• Develops a single, on-going application throughout much of the object-oriented part of the book – Enables students to see every important concept fully implemented and explained in code.

• Supports discussions with a sound instructional framework composed of:

– Chapter objectives and summaries.

– Boxed Notes sections that highlight important ideas.

– Approximately 700 end-of-section exercises divided into paper-and-pencil exercises, experiments, and programming problems.

– Unique experiments that students can use to extend material in the book and explore new areas.

– Business-related programming problems.

– Approximately 140 completely developed and carefully explained programs.

 

• Revised to include–

–        Object-oriented design issues

–        Updated terminology

–        A chapter on the string class

–        Optional sections to improve the flow of the exposition

–        Rearranged material to improve readability

–        A section on the C++ Math Library

–        A Special Topics chapter

 

·         Revisions to Part I — Some of the material in Part I has been labeled as optional and other material has been moved to the Special Topics chapter. Several sections have been rewritten to improve readability.

• Revisions to Part II -  (Part II (which covers the essential object-oriented ideas through inheritance and polymorphism) begins with a chapter on the C++ string class. Object-oriented concepts are introduced in this chapter so that students can begin instantiating, using, and manipulating string objects without having to worry about how to define a class. The remainder of Part II has been rearranged so that the chapters featuring more important topics appear first.
