Calculus and Analytic Geometry with Applications

This edition of Kapps and Stafford continues to provide a complete, self-contained explanation of the PDP-11 computer system and its architecture. By covering computer architecture from the ground up, the book may be used with minimal prerequisites. Significant changes in this edition include: complete coverage of the UNIX operating system; a new Chapter 14 that describes systems level input/output with RT, RSX and UNIX; additional material on base conversion algorithms, local symbols, macros, and debugging; and all high-level language program examples are now written in Pascal and FORTRAN. Both professionals and beginning students will find the text valuable for its extensive topical coverage and exercises, and its early actual hands-on programming. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students on courses covering the PDP-11 computer system and its architecture.
