Introduction to Computer Science

Nance, Douglas W.

West Publishing Company

This introductory programming text for TURBO Pascal incorporates graphics and object-oriented programming and emphasizes communication skills. It covers procedures, functions, and parameters early in the text. Pedagogy includes "Note of Interest" boxes, communication and style tips, focus on program design, programming problems and projects, and communication in practice activities.

Understanding Turbo Pascal: Programming and Problem Solving/With Turbo 6.0 and 7.0

Business & Money

Management & Leadership

West Group

A slower-paced introduction to Pascal featuring development of procedures and parameters (Ch. 7) after loops and conditional statements. (For an earlier development of procedures and parameters see the Alternate Edition.) Includes a Turbo Pascal appendix with comments referenced to specific examples. This is the paperback version of the first half of Nance, Naps Introduction to Computer Science.

Pascal: Understanding Programming and Problem Solving

This alternate version of Pascal, Fourth Edition features a faster pace and earlier development of procedures, parameters, and functions before loops and conditional statements (Ch. 3). (For a later development of procedures and parameters, see the fourth edition). This is the paperback version of the first half of Nance, Naps Introduction to Computer Science, 3rd Alternate Edition.

Pascal: Understanding Programming and Problem Solving, 3rd Alternate Edition

PWS Pub. Co.

A comprehensive introduction to the CS1 and CS2 sequence. Uses Standard Pascal throughout with a Turbo Pascal appendix page-referenced to specific examples. Meets A.C.M. guidelines for CS1 and CS2, including complete coverage of structured programming and problem solving, as well as advanced programming techniques like using abstract data types, trees, stacks, and queues. Features patient development of procedures and parameters (Ch. 7) after loops and conditional statements. The first half [Nance, Pascal 4E (04306-3)] and second half [Naps, Program Design and Data Structures (93308-5)] of this text are available in paperback.

Introduction to Computer Science: Programming, Problem Solving and Data Structures

Computers & Technology

Naps, Thomas L.

Programming

Alternate version of Nance, Naps Introduction to Computer Science with Pascal for the CS1 and CS2 sequence. Pascal Programming (first half of the text) is reorganized to stress earlier coverage of procedures, parameters, and functions (Ch. 3) before loops and conditional statements, and at a faster pace. The first half [Nance, Pascal 3rd Alt. Edition (04361-6)] and second half [Naps, Program Design and Data Structures (93308-5)] of this text are available in paperback.

Introduction to Computer Science: Programming, Problem Solving and Data Structures, Alternate Edition

This text features a gradual approach to object-oriented programming that covers problem solving and algorithm development but also gives students solid grounding in objects and classes. Problem solving is emphasized throughout the text through numerous exercises, programming problems, and projects. Also includes communication and style tips, module specifications, structure charts, "A Note of Interest" boxes, focus on program design sections with complete, full programs, and running, debugging, and testing tips. Appendices provide additional information on functions related to the C++ language.

Understanding Programming and Problem Solving With C++

Lambert, Kenneth

Reference

Derived from the highly successful Nance Pascal books, this text features a gradual approach to object-oriented programming that covers problem solving and algorithm development but also gives students solid grounding in objects and classes which are covered in Chapters 7 and 8. Problem solving is emphasized throughout the text through numerous exercises, programming problems, and projects. Also includes Communication and Style Tips, module specifications, structure charts, A Note of Interest boxes, Focus on Program Design sections with complete, full programs, and Running, Debugging, and Testing Tips. Appendices provide additional information on functions related to the C++ language. The text corresponds to the first ten chapters of Introduction to Computer Science with C++ by Lambert, Nance, Naps.

Laboratory Manual for Introductory Programming and Problem Solving with C++

Course Technology

This text includes a history of math and covers logic, computing, finance, and geometry. The numerous exercise and problem sets, including writing exercises, provide non-majors with a thorough foundation of mathematics. Optional Road Maps, included in the preface, provide different ways to organize chapter topics in a coherent fashion, and ideas and goals for various approaches to teaching the course. (This information is expanded upon in the Instructor's Manual.)
