Designed for readers with little or no computer experience, this book provides a step-by-step progression —with detailed explanations and many illustrations —from the basics of mathematical functions and operators to the design and use of such techniques as code, indicators, control-breaks, arrays, pointers, file updates, report handling, data structures, and object-oriented programming. The tools of problem solving —including problem analysis charts, interactivity (structure) charts, IPO charts, coupling diagrams, algorithms, and flowcharts —are demonstrated and explained throughout. For introductory level problem solving for languages, problem solving for applications, or any language course found where problem solving is a part of the course work.
