Programming & Problem Solving with C++ provides the most accessible introduction to C++ & object-oriented programming for beginning students. With its straightforward & disciplined programming style, this text is free of intricate language features, promotes good programming habits, & provides clear examples, complete case studies, & numerous end-of-chapter exercises. The first half of the text gives students a solid foundation in algorithm development & functional decomposition design methodology. The second half builds on the foundation, exploring ADTs, the C++ classes, encapsulation, information hiding, & object-oriented software development.
In the tradition of Pascal and Turbo Pascal, authors Nell Dale and Chip Weems have teamed up with Mark Headington to offer Programming and Problem Solving with C++ for students in the CS1/C101 course. Written in the same style as the successful Pascal books, this text provides an accessible introduction to programming using C++ for beginning students. The first half of the text gives students a solid foundation in top-down programming techniques. The second half builds on this foundation and explains ADTs, the C++ class, encapsulation, information hiding, and object-oriented software development.
For the C++ introductoryprogramming course Problem Solving with C++ continues to be the most widely usedtextbook by students and instructors in the introduction to programming and C++language course. Through each edition, hundreds and thousands of students havevalued Walt Savitch’s approach to programming, which emphasizes active readingthrough the use of well-placed examples and self-test examples. Created for thebeginner, this book focuses on cultivating strong problem-solving andprogramming techniques while introducing students to the C++ programminglanguage.
Walter Savitch's Problem Solving with C++, Fifth Edition is available with Savitch's Visual C++ 6.0 Companion, providing everything needed to learn to write and run C++ programs in the Visual C++ environment. Problem Solving with C++ teaches programming techniques and the C++ language, while the Visual C++ 6.0 Companion discusses Visual C++ C++ language enhanced by Microsoft with an editor, a compiler, and a debugger which is designed to accommodate and take full advantage of the Windows operating system. A CD-ROM featuring the Visual C++ language is also included. This book brings the best-selling text book for introducing C++ to fully embrace the most up-to-date C++ standards. Suitable for beginning students, the text covers C++ and basic programming techniques. Students will elarn how to define their own classes whilel gaining a solid understanding of basic tools such as simple control structures and function definitions. By defining their own classes early, students are getting a hands-on experience unrivaled by any other text on the market. Flexible by design, the order in which chapters and sections are covered can easily be changed without any loss on continuity in reading. Instructors can therefore mold this text around the way they want to teach rather than have the text dictate their course's organization.
A comprehensive introduction to the C programming language - suitable for novice programmers as well as programmers with a knowledge of other programming languages.
This edition of Data Abstraction and Problem Solving with Java: Walls and Mirrors employs the analogies of Walls (data abstraction) and Mirrors (recursion) to teach Java programming design solutions, in a way that beginning students find accessible. The book has a student-friendly pedagogical approach that carefully accounts for the strengths and weaknesses of the Java language. With this book, students will gain a solid foundation in data abstraction, object-oriented programming, and other problem-solving techniques.

This self-readable and student-friendly text provides a strong programming foundation to solve problems with C language through its well-supported structured programming methodology, rich set of operators and data types. It is designed to help students build efficient and compact programs. The book, now in its second edition, is an extended version of Dr. M.T. Somashekara's previous book titled as Programming in C. In addition to two newly introduced chapters on 'Graphics using C' and 'Searching and Sorting', all other chapters of the previous edition have been thoroughly revised and updated. The usage of pseudocodes as a problem-solving tool has been explored throughout the book before providing C programming solutions for the problems, wherever necessary. This book comes with an increased number of examples, programs, review questions, programming exercises and interview questions in each chapter. Appendices, glossary, MCQs with answers and solutions to interview questions are given at the end of the book. The book is eminently suitable for students of Computer Science, Computer Applications, and Information Technology at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Assuming no previous knowledge of programming techniques, this book is appropriate for all those students who wish to master the C language as a problem-solving tool for application in their respective disciplines. It even caters to the needs of beginners in computer programming. KEY FEATURES • Introduction to problem-solving tools like algorithms, flow charts and pseudocodes • Systematic approach to teaching C with simple explanation of each concept • Expanded coverage of arrays, structures, pointers and files • Complete explanation of working of each program with emphasis on the core segment of the program, supported by a large number of solved programs and programming exercises in each chapter NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION • Points-wise summary at the end of each chapter • MCQs with Answers • Interview Questions with Solutions • Pseudocodes for all the problems solved using programs • Two new chapters on 'Graphics using C' and 'Searching and Sorting’ • Additional review questions and programming exercises
This book is suitable for students with little or no programming background. The complete book can easily be covered in a one-semester or one-quarter introductory course on problem solving.
A fast-paced, thorough introduction to modern C++ written for experienced programmers. After reading C++ Crash Course, you'll be proficient in the core language concepts, the C++ Standard Library, and the Boost Libraries. C++ is one of the most widely used languages for real-world software. In the hands of a knowledgeable programmer, C++ can produce small, efficient, and readable code that any programmer would be proud of. Designed for intermediate to advanced programmers, C++ Crash Course cuts through the weeds to get you straight to the core of C++17, the most modern revision of the ISO standard. Part 1 covers the core of the C++ language, where you'll learn about everything from types and functions, to the object life cycle and expressions. Part 2 introduces you to the C++ Standard Library and Boost Libraries, where you'll learn about all of the high-quality, fully-featured facilities available to you. You'll cover special utility classes, data structures, and algorithms, and learn how to manipulate file systems and build high-performance programs that communicate over networks. You'll learn all the major features of modern C++, including: Fundamental types, reference types, and user-defined types The object lifecycle including storage duration, memory management, exceptions, call stacks, and the RAII paradigm Compile-time polymorphism with templates and run-time polymorphism with virtual classes Advanced expressions, statements, and functions Smart pointers, data structures, dates and times, numerics, and probability/statistics facilities Containers, iterators, strings, and algorithms Streams and files, concurrency, networking, and application development With well over 500 code samples and nearly 100 exercises, C++ Crash Course is sure to help you build a strong C++ foundation.
Based off the highly successful Programming and Problem Solving with C++ which Dale is famous for, comes the new Brief Edition, perfect for the one-term course. The text was motivated by the need for a text that covered only what instructors and students are able to move through in a single semester.
