About this title

Synopsis

This title is now available in a Book/CD-ROM package. (ISBN: 0-201-30485-6)Ada 95 Problem Solving and Program Design, Second Edition provides students with an introduction to programming using Ada 95. Students with no prior programming experience will begin to explore programming in this powerful, yet flexible language ideal for large-scale software system development. Adopted as a standard by the ISO and the ANSI, Ada 95 is the first fully object-oriented programming language to be internationally standardized. This allows the programs presented in the text to be completely portable to any validated Ada 95 compiler. While presenting a balanced mixture of modern programming concepts and Ada 95 language capabilities, this text provides a solid programming foundation benefiting from the richness of Ada 95.Highlights: * Emphasizes "object thinking" by introducing object-based and object-oriented programming concepts throughout the book. * Presents encapsulating design from the beginning to stress the importance of reusability of functions, packages, and procedures. * Introduces control structures, data structures, and system (encapsulation) structures in parallel throughout the book. * Presents about 200 complete, compilable, executable programs followed immediately by a sample output. * Helps students build on concepts with a continuing project, "spider graphics" recurring throughout the book. * Uses proven pedagogical features to encourage strong programming skills. These include case studies, self-check exercises, programming style displays, syntax displays, and common-error discussions in every chapter. 0201870096B04062001

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
