• Introduces objects and classes early, right after control structures and before arrays and pointers

• Covers more advanced OOP topics,  recursion, linked lists, stacks,  queues, and binary trees in later chapters

• Follows an ANSI standard and uses the most currently accepted programming practices

• Includes new appendices on UML and on .NET and Managed C++

• Can be ordered alone or with a lab manual that gives students pre-developed code to complete, edit, and experiment with

• Is supported by Addison-Wesley’s exclusive MyCodeMate tool

   

   

  MyCodeMate is a web-based, textbook-specific homework tool and programming resource for an introduction to programming course. It provides a wide range of tools that students can use to help them learn programming concepts, prepare for tests, and earn better grades in the introductory programming course. Students can work on programming problems from this text or homework problems created by their professors, and receive guided hints with page references and English explanations of compiler errors. Instructors can assign textbook-specific or self-created homework problems, preset style attributes, view students’ code and class compiler error logs, and track homework completion. A complimentary subscription is offered when an access code is ordered packaged with a new copy of this text. Subscriptions may also be purchased online.  For more information visit www.myCodeMate.com.

• Several Progamming Challenges in each chapter have been selected for inclusion in Addison-Wesley's MyCodeMate. MyCodeMate allows students to complete the programming Challenges on-line, with automated assistance and feedback provided as needed.  It also provides instructors with information on student progress and helps with course management.

• Each Programming Challenge integrated into MyCodeMate is followed in the text by a "twin" problem that has the student either build on the original program or create a new program that is similar in design in it.

• The double data type, rather than the float data type, has become the standard used throughout the book for floating-point variables.

• The standard has been adopted throughout the book of giving named constants indentifier names consisting entirely of uppercase characters and underscores.

• Array size declarators, previously specified with literals, are now specified with named constants.

• The appendices have been reorganized and each appendix is now stored in its own PDF file, with numbering starting from page 1.  This will make it easire for students to locate appendix information.

• Two new appendices have been added-Using UML in Class Design and .NET and Managed C++

• A UML icon has been added throughout the text where appropriate to refer students to the contents of the new appendix.

  Starting Out with C++: Early Objects, 6/E

  ISBN-10: 0321512383 | ISBN-13: 9780321512383
  Suggested retail price: $118.00  Net price: $88.50  (What's this?)Brief Description

  

  Tony Gaddis’s accessible, step-by-step presentation helps beginning students understand the important details necessary to become skilled programmers at an introductory level. Gaddis motivates the study of both programming skills and the C++ programming language by presenting all the details needed to understand the “how” and the “why”—but never losing sight of the fact that most beginners struggle with this material. His approach is both gradual and highly accessible, ensuring that students understand the logic behind developing high-quality programs.
  
  In Starting Out with C++: Early Objects, Gaddis covers objects and classes early after functions and before arrays and pointers. As with all Gaddis texts, clear and easy-to-read code listings, concise and practical real-world examples, and an abundance of exercises appear in every chapter. This text is intended for either a one-semester accelerated introductory course or a traditional two-semester sequence covering C++ programming.

Tony Gaddis is the principal author of the “Starting Out with” series of textbooks. Tony teaches computer science courses at Haywood Community College in North Carolina. He is a highly acclaimed instructor who was previously selected as the North Carolina Community College "Teacher of the Year,” and has received the Teaching Excellence award from the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development. Besides C++ books, the “Starting Out with” series includes introductory books using the Java™ programming language, Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET, and Microsoft® C#®, all published by Addison-Wesley.

Judy Walters is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at North Central College in Naperville, Illinois.  in addition to her many computer science courses, she enjoys teaching a freshman course on film and literature.  She also enjoys studying foreign languages and cultures, and recently developed a new course in technology and society, which she taught in Costa Rica Fall, 2005, as part of the college's international studies program. 

Godfrey Muganda is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at North Central College in Naperville Illinois, where he chairs the Computer Science Department. He teaches a wide variety of courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels including courses in Object-Oriented Programming, Comparative Programming Languages, and Complier Design.  His primary research interests are in the Fuzzy Sets and Systems.  He won the North Central College faculty award for outstanding scholarship in 1993.

The Starting Out with C++ textbook series has students raving. It presents introductory programming concepts in a student-friendly and accessible step-by-step way, ensuring that beginning programmers understand each programming topic.

“My school’s first programming class uses Starting Out with C++. I love your C++ book–it makes everything so easy to understand!”

–Christopher Savage, student at Augusta State University

“I’m using your book in an introductory course in C++. Your book is GREAT!! It abstracts the complexity of C++ down to the core concepts that we can build on. Thanks!”

–Jim Burke, student at University of Texas at Dallas

In addition to Gaddis’ emphasis on practical examples, abundant practice exercises, and focus on problem solving and program design, Starting Out with C++: Early Objects, 5e (formerly called “Alternate Version”):

• Follows the ANSI standard and uses the most currently accepted programming practices

• Covers both procedural and object-oriented programming

• Introduces classes in Chapter 7, right after control structures and functions

• Has new appendices on UML and on .NET and Managed C++

• Illustrates concepts and techniques with over 350 fully runnable example programs
