Programming and problem solving with C++ : brief, sixth edition

Authors:Nell Dale, Chip Weems (Author)

Summary:This concise and consolidated edition was developed in response to the need for a text that covered only what students and instructors are able to move through in a single semester. Sacrificing none of the breadth and detail of the comprehensive edition, the brief edition retains Dale and Weems's trademark accessible and hands-on style. The text's student-focused approach makes even the most difficult concepts in computer science programming accessible to all students. This edition includes new programming exercises and new, more student-friendly organization of material; provides new discussion of Pointers and expanded discussion of C-Strings; features strong pedagogical elements, including real-world case studies and highly relevant exercises that reinforce key concepts and build crucial skills; introduces C++ language constructs in parallel with appropriate theory so that students immediately realize practical applications. -- Edited summary from book
