Introduction to Programming Languages

In programming courses using the different syntax of multiple languages such as C++ Java PHP and Python for the same abstraction often confuses students new to computer science. Introduction to Programming Languages separates programming language concepts from the restraints of multiple language syntax by discussing the concepts at an abstract level. Designed for a one-semester undergraduate course this classroom-tested book teaches the principles of programming language design and implementation. It presents: Common features of programming languages at an abstract level rather than a comparative level The implementation model and behavior of programming paradigms at abstract levels so that students understand the power and limitations of programming paradigms Language constructs at a paradigm level A holistic view of programming language design and behavior To make the book self-contained the author introduces the necessary concepts of data structures and discrete structures from the perspective of programming language theory. The text covers classical topics such as syntax and semantics imperative programming program structures information exchange between subprograms object-oriented programming logic programming and functional programming. It also explores newer topics including dependency analysis communicating sequential processes concurrent programming constructs web and multimedia programming event-based programming agent-based programming synchronous languages high-productivity programming on massive parallel computers models for mobile computing and much more. Along with problems and further reading in each chapter the book includes in-depth examples and case studies using various languages that help students understand syntax in practical contexts.

Introduction to Programming Using Visual Basic (11th Edition) by David Schneider

For courses in Visual Basic Programming. A Current and Comprehensive Introduction to Visual Basic Programming Schneider's Introduction to Programming Using Visual Basic has been consistently praised in the industry since 1991 and is a favorite of instructors and students. The 11th Edition is updated for Visual Basic 2017, providing an ideal tool for students learning their first programming language. The text keeps pace with modern programming methodology while incorporating current content and good programming practices. Schneider emphasizes problem solving by discussing problem-solving techniques early and using them throughout the book. He also ensures each chapter is rich yet concise by developing chapters around crucial subjects rather than covering too many topics superficially. The new edition provides a broad range of real-world examples, section-ending exercises, case studies, and programming projects that provide students with the most current and hands-on experience of any Visual Basic book on the market. The number and range of projects give instructors the flexibility to adapt the course according to the interests and abilities of students. Some programming projects in later chapters can be assigned as end-of-the-semester projects. Also available with MyLab Programming MyLab(TM) is the teaching and learning platform that empowers you to reach every student.

Java Programming FundamentalsProblem Solving Through Object Oriented Analysis and Design

While Java texts are plentiful it?s difficult to find one that takes a real-world approach and encourages novice programmers to build on their Java skills through practical exercise. Written by an expert with 19 experience teaching computer programming Java Programming Fundamentals presents object-oriented programming by employing examples taken from everyday life. Provides a foundation in object-oriented design principles and UML notation Describes common pitfalls and good programming practices Furnishes supplemental links documents and programs on its companion website www.premnair.net Uses day-to-day life examples to introduce every object-oriented and programming concept Includes an extensive stand-alone chapter on GUI and event programming Contains numerous examples self-check questions quick review material and an extensive list of both programming and non-programming exercises The text presents object-oriented design and programming principles in a completely integrated and incremental fashion. It correlates each concept to a real-world application example and then introduces the corresponding Java language construct. The approach continues throughout the book in that every concept is first introduced through practical examples followed by short programming tutorials. To round out its coverage the book provides several case studies which illustrate various design issues and demonstrate the usefulness of techniques presented throughout the book. Using its one-of-a-kind approach Java Programming Fundamentals demonstrates the object-oriented design techniques required to simulate actual real-life situations without compromising study of traditional programming constructs and structures.

Advances in Optimization and Linear Programming

This new volume provides the information needed to understand the simplex method the revised simplex method dual simplex method and more for solving linear programming problems.Following a logical order the book first gives a mathematical model of the linear problem programming and describes the usual assumptions under which the problem is solved. It gives a brief description of classic algorithms for solving linear programming problems as well as some theoretical results. It goes on to explain the definitions and solutions of linear programming problems outlining the simplest geometric methods and showing how they can be implemented. Practical examples are included along the way. The book concludes with a discussion of multi-criteria decision-making methods.Advances in Optimization and Linear Programming is a highly useful guide to linear programming for professors and students in optimization and linear programming.
