Description
For undergraduate students in Computer Science and Computer Programming courses.
A solid foundation in the basics of C++ programming will allow students to create efficient, elegant code ready for any production environment.
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 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.
This second edition has been updated with new advances in technology as well as a variety of new problem-solving examples. There are over 200 examples and 500 exercises to help students learn.
