Description Starting Out with Programming Logic and Design , Third Edition, is a language-independent introductory programming book that orients students to programming concepts and logic without assuming any previous programming experience. Students gain confidence in their program design skills to transition into more comprehensive programming courses. The book is ideal for a programming logic course taught as a precursor to a language-specific introductory programming course, or for the first part of an introductory programming course.
Preface Preface is available for download in PDF format. A l anguage-independent approach allows students to gain confidence and build skills before moving on to a more comprehensive language-specific course.
Program design, selection structures, and repetition structures —key topics that beginners need to master—are covered slowly using multiple examples. Functions are covered early but with enough flexibility to be moved later in the course. Menu-driven programming and input validation are covered in separate chapters, allowing instructors to reorder coverage.
An appendix, Getting Started with Alice, presents an overview of the Alice programming environment. Student Online Resources are available on the Gaddis Series resource page at www. Students can view the entire problem-solving process outside of the classroom—when they need help the most. ANS: A 3.
