An introduction to computer science topics rather than simply a first programming text with PASCAL. The author introduces procedural abstraction, hierarchy, explicit problem-solving techniques, recursion, correctness, rudimentary analysis and data abstraction on the undergraduate level.

Structures and Abstractions: An Introduction to Computer Science With Turbo Pascal (5.X, 6.X, 7.0)

This lab manual is designed to be used in conjunction with either Salmon's PASCAL text or as a stand-alone product. The manual is suitable for self-study as well as guided laboratory sessions. Some early labs are merely hands-on guides to the use of particular software packages--MS-DOS, MacIntosh, Turbo Pascal, and THINK Pascal. Most labs are system independent, providing step-by-step help in problem solving and the use of ISO Standard Pascal. The end of the lab manual features some major simulation programs: A Turing machine and a psychiatrist program.

This book is also available through the Introductory Engineering Custom Publishing System. If you are interested in creating a course-pack that includes chapters from this book, you can get further information by calling 212-850-6272 or sending email inquiries to engineer&amp;atsign;jwiley.com. A complete treatment of the American National Standard FORTRAN 77 language, this book also offers good coverage of debugging. Promotes clear programming style and easily maintainable programs, via top-down, modular design techniques. Examples are representative of those written on interactive terminals, and many of the runs are illustrated as they appear on MS-DOS machines and Macintoshes. The examples provided (over 135, in all) are highly transportable--all programs have been tested on several systems. Flexible enough for one-quarter to two-semester courses.

Covering thoroughly the central subject of computer science--data structures and algorithms--this text offers a practical introduction to theory, implementation, and applications using the Abstract Data Type approach. For each of the major data types, it provides a definition in terms of objects and operations, an illustration of its use, and at least one method of implementation. Specific topics include parsing, simulation, expression simplification, BNF, and backtracking. Most implementations are analyzed informally through the Big-Oh notation, introduced in the first chapter. Each discussion is followed by larger applications and overviews of related issues. Special emphasis is placed on recursion, which is fully explained and used to clarify other concepts in the book. In addition, program readability is also stressed and reinforced. Throughout, the superiority of Modula-2 over earlier languages is fully exploited. Exercises comprise almost 15% of the text.
