Description
This widely applauded book provides a step-by-step presentation, with programming examples and problems drawn from a variety of technology disciplines. Readers will learn good programming practices and will develop an understanding of systematic problem solving through top-down modular programming. This text meets the needs of most employers for students adequately trained to be effective problem-solvers. Thus, important features of this new edition are troubleshooting techniques at the end of each chapter and Ken Koder scenarios describing typical job situations. Working with employers and academics teaching C programming, the authors believe that this book will better prepare students for success in their jobs. The companion CD-ROM contains all of the source and executable files for every programming example in the book. In addition, a free 32-bit C/C++ compiler is also included, which will allow the student to begin writing and compiling code as quickly as possible.
