A fundamentals-first approach to programming helps you create efficient, elegant code.
Revel® for Introduction to Programming with C++ and Data Structures helps you learn essential programming concepts and practice coding in one continuous experience — anytime, anywhere, and on any device. Author Daniel Liang introduces basic programming concepts using a fundamentals-first approach that prepares you to learn object-oriented and advanced C++ programming. More than a digital textbook, Revel delivers an engaging blend of tutorial videos, code animations, coding interactives, self-test items, and graded code assessment interweaved in Liang’s proven narrative content and pedagogy. Thousands of contextual examples help you learn how to use programming to solve problems. Up-to-date content reflects recent programming trends, such as cloud storage and touchscreens, and all code is compatible with C++17.
NOTE: Revel is a fully digital delivery of Pearson content. This ISBN is for the standalone Revel access card. In addition to this access card, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.
Dr. Daniel Liang earned his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Oklahoma in 1991, and his M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science from Fudan University in Shanghai, China in 1986 and 1983. Prior to joining Armstrong State University (now merged with Georgia Southern University), he was an Associate Professor in computer science at Purdue University in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where he twice received the Excellence in Research award.
Dr. Liang is currently a Professor of Computer Science at Georgia Southern University and has given lectures on programming internationally. He was trained in theoretical computer science. He has published in the SIAM Journal on Computing, Discrete Applied Mathematics, Acta Informatics, and Information Processing Letters. He is the author of more than thirty books and his popular computer science texts are widely used throughout the world.
