Review

"Easy to understand, MindTap is awesome, numerous exercises"

"The tables within each of the chapters are very helpful. Also, the notes within the chapter help the student understand the specific point about the information discussed. The questions after each section help the students practice their coding skills."

"I think that the pedagogical features are a great aspect of this textbook. I love how the objectives are easy to comprehend and the review questions are straight to the point. The notes and examples are a big help when I am trying to explain a concept. I am constantly telling my students to add the examples and notes to their coding manuals."
