Description: Starting Out with Programming Logic and Design by Tony Gaddis Earlier editions published under title: Starting out with programming logic & design. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description For courses in problem solving and programming logic. Starting Out with Programming Logic and Design is a language-independent introductory programming book, teaching students programming concepts and logic without assuming any previous programming experience. Designed for beginners, the text is clear and approachable, making the complex concepts accessible to every student. In this new edition, Gaddis focuses on current languages providing code snippet examples and complete programs for each. The text uses updated, contemporary examples to familiarise students with models and logical thought processes used in programming without further complicating them with language syntax. By using easy-to-understand pseudocode, flowcharts, and other tools, Gaddis illustrates how to design the logic of programs. The book is ideal for a programming logic course taught as a precursor to a language-specific introductory programming course, or for the first part of an introductory programming course.

Easy-to-understand pseudocode, flowcharts and other tools teach students how to design the logic of programs without the complication of language syntax. Each chapter presents a multitude of program design examples. Short examples highlight specific programming topics and more involved examples focus on problem solving. Each chapter includes at least one In the Spotlight section that provides step-by-step analysis of a specific problem and demonstrates a solution to that problem. New Feature New and updated features of this title NEW: Motivational programming exercises have been added to several chapters. NEW: Focus on Languages: Java, Python and C++ sections at the end of Chapters 2-15 discusses how the chapters main topics are implemented in the Java, Python and C++ programming languages. NEW: Init() module section in Chapter 15 is a startup module in a GUI application, similar to the start method in a JavaFX application, or the Form Load handler in a Windows Forms application. NEW: Designing Apps for Mobile Devices section in Chapter 15 discusses some of the common issues developers face when designing apps for mobile devices. UPDATED: All the books Language Reference Guides have been updated.
