Summary

Emphasizing the basic concepts of programming and the development of problem-solving skills, this highly-effective introduction to computer science employs Pascal for implementation programs. Gonzalez and Robbins provide details on the design of algorithms before giving the problem solutions. Chapters on problem-solving and chapters on Pascal syntax are interwoven; this format allows instructors to teach current techniques in problem solving, software engineering, and programming along with the introduction of Pascal syntax. Structured pseudo-code is used consistently in problem-solving to encourage algorithm design as a prelude to program implementation. The text offers a large variety of exercises and problems with a wide range of difficulty.
