A text for the Computer Science 2 course as described in the curriculum recommendations of the Association of Computing Machinery. Covers developing a disciplined approach to designing, coding, and testing programs written in a high-level language; using data abstractions as examples of data structures other than those normally provided as basic types in current programming languages; understanding the different implementations of the data structures; searching, sorting, and analyzing algorithms; and laying a foundation for further studies in computer science. Uses object-oriented programming, which has become the standard in programming and system development. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

From the Back Cover

“The presentation is excellent, good writing style, supportive and well-placed illustrations; and a variety of exercises reinforcing the concepts.” —Adair Dingle, Seattle University

“This is one of the very few books that I have seen that combines foundations of software engineering with an introduction to computer science in some detail and introduces topics that are only covered in advanced courses. It is very important that our students start to learn these fundamental issues as early as possible.” —Mansour Zand, University of Nebraska
