Description
A textbook for a course of one or two semesters teaching programming in the computer language that has failed to infiltrate engineering as thoroughly as many other fields. Begins with procedural programming and advances to object orientation as rapidly as the pedagogical framework allows, but the section on object oriented programming can be bypassed in favor of one on data structures. The emphasis throughout is on solving problems, software engineering, and applications. The 3.5

With C++ gaining a stronghold in the engineering and scientific communities, Bronson's book makes C++ accessible to first level engineering students. Featuring a wealth of practical, engineering-oriented examples and applications, the book teaches the fundamentals of the C++ language with a gradual refinement of programming skills from a procedural to an object orientation. Part One presents procedural programming with an emphasis on modular program design, and helps readers understand the importance of writing programs that can be easily modified and maintained. Part Two on object-oriented programming and Part Three on data structures are interchangeable for teaching flexibility. Problem solving techniques, software engineering, and completed applications are emphasized throughout.
