Ada 95: Problem Solving and Program Design

In this third edition, educators Michael Feldman and Elliot Koffman continue to refine and enhance their balanced presentation of modern programming concepts and Ada 95 language capabilities. Students with no prior programming experience will begin to program with this interesting and powerful, yet flexible language that is used in the Boeing 777 and Airbus 340, the International Space Station, the European high-speed rail system, and many other major projects around the world.

This text includes a CD-ROM containing versions of the GNU Ada 95 compiler (GNAT), other program development tools, and high-resolution graphics support for the Windows, DOS, Macintosh, and Linux operating systems. GNAT supports the full Ada 95 language as standardized by the ISO and the ANSI.

Dr. Michael Feldman is a professor of computer science at The George Washington University, as well as Chair of the Education Working Group of the ACM Special Interest Group on Ada (SIGAda). He has over fifteen years experience teaching Ada in introductory courses, and is the author of two other books, Software Construction and Data Structures with Ada 95 and Data Structures with Modula-2. Dr. Feldman manages the popular Internet site, Ada Programming Language Resources for Educators and Students - http://www.acm.org/sigada/education.

Elliot Koffman is a professor of computer and information science at Temple University. He is one of the country's foremost CS educators, a former chairman of the ACM Task Force for introductory programming methods courses, and author of a number of successful language texts in Modula-2, FORTRAN, in addition to his four editions of Pascal and Turbo Pascal.
