Synopsis

Problem Solving, Abstraction, and Design Using C++ presents and then reinforces the basic principles of software engineering and object-oriented programming while introducing the C++ programming language. The hallmarks of this book are the focus on problem solving and program design. This book carefully presents object-oriented programming by balancing it with procedural programming so the reader does not overlook the fundamentals of algorithm organization and design.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Frank Friedman and Elliot Koffman continue their strong focus on teaching beginners how-to program, and not just how to write C++ code. Problem Solving, Abstraction, and Design Using C++ focuses on problem solving by consistently using a five-step problem-solving process throughout the book. This text uses C++ to teach introductory principles of software engineering while tailoring these principles to the abilities of beginning computer science students.
