Learning basic logic and fundamental programming techniques are essential for new programmers to succeed. A distinctive fundamentals-first approach and clear, concise writing style characterize this unique new text. Basic programming concepts are introduced on control statements, loops, functions, and arrays before object-oriented programming is discussed. Abstract concepts are carefully and concretely explained using simple, short, and stimulating examples. Explanations are presented in brief segments, with many figures and tables.

• CD-ROM with Visual C++ software accompanying the text

 

•  Comprehensive, step-by-step presentation – Encourages students to learn incrementally all essential subjects in C++ from fundamentals programming techniques to object-oriented programming, from simple functions to STL, from simple data types to classic structures.

 

•  A thorough introduction on primitive data types, control statements, functions, and arrays – Prepares students to learn object-oriented programming.

 

• Systematic, coherent coverage of the C++ topics – Helps students learn fundamental programming techniques (selection statements, loops, functions, and arrays).

 

• A variety of interesting examples (approx 150) – Includes games, business applications, and mathematical problems.
