Description: About this productProduct InformationProblem Solving and Programming Concepts, 9/e, is a core or supplementary text for one-semester, freshman/sophomore-level introductory courses taken by programming majors in Problem Solving for Programmers, Problem Solving for Applications, any Computer Language Course, or Introduction to Programming. Revised to reflect the most current issues in the programming industry, this widely adopted text emphasizes that problem solving is the same in all computer languages, regardless of syntax. Sprankle and Hubbard use a generic, non-language-specific approach to present the tools and concepts required when using any programming language to develop computer applications. Designed for students with little or no computer experience -- but useful to programmers at any level -- the text provides step-by-step progression and consistent in-depth coverage of topics, with detailed explanations and many illustrations.Product IdentifiersPublisherPearson EducationISBN-100132492644ISBN-139780132492645eBay Product ID (ePID)102761611Product Key FeaturesAuthorMaureen Sprankle, Jim HubbardPublication NameProblem Solving and Programming conceptsFormatTrade PaperbackLanguageEnglishPublication Year2011TypeTextbookNumber of Pages528 PagesDimensionsItem Length0.4in.Item Height0.4in.Item Width0.4in.Item Weight33.6 OzAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberQa76.6.S684 2011Edition Number9Table of ContentPreface vii UNIT ONE INTRODUCTION TO PROBLEM SOLVING AND PROGRAMMING, 1 Chapter 1 General Problem-Solving Concepts 3 Problem Solving in Everyday Life 3 Types of Problems 5 Problem Solving with Computers 6 Difficulties with Problem Solving 6 Summary 7 New Terms 7 Questions 7 Problems 8 Chapter 2 Beginning Problem-Solving Concepts for the Computer 11 Constants and Variables 13 Data Types 16 How the Computer Stores Data 20 Functions 21 Operators 23 Expressions and Equations 27 Summary 34 New Terms 35 Questions 35 Problems 37 Chapter 3 Planning Your Solution 41 Communicating with the Computer 42 Organizing the Solution 43 Introduction to UML (Unified Modeling Language) 55 Using the Tools 59 Testing the Solution 61 Coding the Solution 61 Software Development Cycle 62 Summary 62 New Terms 63 Questions 63 Problems 63 UNIT ONE Supplementary Exercises, 65 UNIT TWO LOGIC STRUCTURES, 69 Chapter 4 An Introduction to Programming Structure 71 Pointers for Structuring a Solution 72 The Modules and Their Functions 74 Cohesion and Coupling 75 Local and Global Variables 77 Parameters 79 Return Values 84 Variable Names and the Data Dictionary 85 The Three Logic Structures 85 Summary 86 New Terms 86Copyright Date2012Target AudienceCollege AudienceTopicProgramming / General, Decision-Making & Problem Solving, General, Logic DesignLccn2010-053156Dewey Decimal005.1Dewey Edition22GenreComputers, Business & Economics
