Description:
If you teach an introductory programming course in any programming language, this book is designed for you!
The original content for this book was written specifically for a course based on C++. This second edition is designed to be programming-language neutral, so that it may serve as an introductory programming textbook for students using any of a variety of programming languages, including C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, and Swift.
Programming concepts are introduced generically, with logic demonstrated in pseudocode and flowchart form, followed by examples for different programming languages. Emphasis is placed on a modular, structured approach that supports reuse, maintenance, and self-documenting code.
The book has been in use since Fall 2018 and is ready for adoption. We welcome additional peer reviewers for all programming languages.
The current
copy of the book
is now available.
