Based on the newest version of Microsoft’s VB. NET, this revision of Schneider’s best-selling text is designed for students with no prior computer programming experience. The author uses Visual Basic .NET to explore the fundamentals of programming, building a strong foundation that will give students a sustainable understanding of programming. A broad range of examples, case studies, exercises, and programming projects give students significant hands-on experience. A “tried and true” text, this book has been consistently praised by both students and instructors.

• A thought-provoking approach that is more challenging to students — Does not water down presentation like other texts in this market.

 

• Teaches actual programming, not just what students can do with VB. NET.

 

• Teaches VB. NET in the context of object-oriented programming, not the other way around.

 

• Well-chosen examples that illustrate each new concept. 

 

• Carefully designed exercise sets — Contains 150 examples and over 1,000 exercises, substantially more than competing books.

 

• Practice problems — Carefully selected problems with solutions focus on potential trouble spots and provide a warm-up to the exercises.

 

Instructor Resource Center - contains the solutions to every exercise and programming project, a test item file, Powerpoints, and more for each chapter.

• A new section on Graphics (section 9.4).

 

• Fully updated example text and data – Examples include tax codes, social security forms/data, baseball statistics, and more.

 

• Ten new programming projects – Much more robust and interesting than projects found in competing texts.

 

• Updated screenshots throughout – All screens updated using Windows XP.

 

• New section on Printing in VB. NET 2005.

 

• New section devoted to the incorporation of inheritance in objects (one of the major changes to the software from Visual Basic 6.0)

 

• All examples run with VB. NET Express and full versions of VB. NET 2K5 (MSDN AA version).
