Ouvrage 9780130618825 : LOGICAL PROBLEM SOLVING: BEFORE THE FLOWCHART, WITH C++ AND VISUAL BASIC

"With a proper approach, solutions to difficult problems can be brought within the reach of the creative problem solver. When the power of a personal computer is added to the attack, many problems that otherwise require considerable advanced study often reveal their solutions. In his 14 years of teaching collegiate programming classes, Robert Lamey has devised a set of rules for resolving complex real-world problems. By approaching problems with the guiding rules described in this text, problems from the worlds of mathematics, physics, economics, cryptography, and many others can be attacked and solved without advanced mathematics or a background in engineering or finance." "Programming is more than the ability to write loops or make function calls. The real purpose for learning to program is to span the gap between the mechanics of programming and the generation of solutions to real problems. Logical Problem Solving goes far beyond merely presenting problems that have been solved. It augments programming texts by providing the rules and the logic that lead to programming solutions. Logical Problem Solving presents the logical processes used by problem solvers for resolving real-world problems." With all the solutions implemented in both C++ and Visual Basic, a wide range of programming students will find this text an indispensable supplement. The pseudo-code and flowcharted solutions bring the power of Professor Lamey's problem-solving methods to students in computer science and a range of related disciplines.
