Synopsis:
This introduction to C++ programming is written especially for those with little or no previous programming background or math beyond algebra. It features a conversational tone and a simplified learn-by-example approach that stresses top-down design and modular structured programming -- with an emphasis on business applications. It walks readers step-by-step through complete programming examples in every chapter -- from problem analysis, logic design, and program coding, to testing and debugging. Uses sample programs to demonstrate application of the program development process from start to finish -- problem definition, input/output specifications, processing requirements, hierarchy charts, program flowcharts, pseudocode, and program code. Shows the output of each sample program after the program code. Offers unique, easy-to-follow coverage of menu-driven programming -- including data validation, guidelines for creating efficient and effective menu system

Offers unique, easy-to-follow coverage of menu-driven programming -- including data validation, guidelines for creating efficient and effective menu systems, and techniques for menu selection processing. Provides thorough, non-technical treatment of files -- sequential random, and indexed files. For prospective C++ programmers with little or no previous programming background or math beyond algebra.
