Tucker and Noonan's new approach emphasizes a thorough, hands-on treatment of key issues in programming language design, providing a balanced mix of explanation and experimentation. Opening chapters present the fundamental principals of programming languages, while optional companion chapters provide implementation-based, hands-on experience that delves even deeper. This edition also includes a greatly expanded treatment of the four major programming paradigms, incorporating a number of the most current languages such as Perl and Python. Special topics presented include event-handling, concurrency, and an all-new chapter on correctness. Overall, this edition provides both broad and deep coverage of language design principles and the major paradigms, allowing users the flexibility of choosing what topics to emphasize.

Computer Science: A Second Course With Modula-2 (MCGRAW HILL COMPUTER SCIENCE SERIES)

Embracing the joint ACM/IEEE curriculum reforms for undergraduate computer science courses, this text covers such topics as: algorithms and data structures, architecture, artificial intelligence and operating systems. It aims to provide a broad and integrated overview of the field, relating practical activities to the broad principles of computer programming. The book is accompanied by a PASCAL lab manual.

Fundamentals of Computing: Logic Problem Solving Programs and Computers

Cupper, Robert D.

Bradley, W. James

Garnick, David

Introducing object-oriented software design through the familiar vehicle of the Abstract Data Type, this text provides a comprehensive overview of abstraction, complexity, data structures, software design, and their underlying theories. It is the second in a series of four books by Tucker providing a first introduction to computer science. The fully developed student lab manual and accompanying software provide challenging programming assignments and reinforcement of text concepts. Key advanced topics in computing, such as operating systems and compilers, are previewed as applications of software and design principles. Also available are a student manual (0-07-065454-9) and instructor's manaual (0-07-065453-0).

Fundamentals of Computing II: Abstraction, Data Structures, and Large Software Systems (MCGRAW HILL COMPUTER SCIENCE SERIES)

This second edition is based on the ACM curricula 1991 and is the first in a four-book series of introductory texts in computer science. It focuses on topics such as logic, problem-solving and theory and programs, providing an integrated overview of the major areas of computing while introducing students to the key processes of theory, abstraction and design. Topics covered include: algorithms and data structures, architecture, artificial intelligence and operating systems. The text integrates laboratory experience uniting principles with programming, and introduces the social and professional context of the discipline.

This lab manual using Pascal accompanies the second edition of Fundamentals of Computing, I. It contains programming assignments in Pascal, as well as an introduction to Von Neumann machine architecture and assembler by way of a simulator called MARINA.

Fundamentals of Computing I, Pascal

This is a C++ text for the second course in an integrated curriculum for computer science. This volume is organized around a study of abstraction and its use in data structures and algorithms. Abstraction is the basic step in the software engineering lifecycle, and is a fundamental tool for advanced work in solving large, complex problems in computer science. A highly integrated lab manual offers students the opportunity for hands-on experience.

Programming Languages

Fundamentals of Computing is a series of four texts and accompanying laboratory manuals that provide the basis for a four-semester breadth-first introduction to the discipline of computing. This series is motivated by both the comprehensive definition of the discipline and the pedagogical principles developed in the reports Computing as a Discipline and Computing Curricula 1991. In addition to its comprehensive treatment of the discipline, this series provides another important dimension for the introductory courses an option to integrate the topics of discrete mathematics with those subjects in computing where they are used. While this series does not require discrete mathematics to be integrated in all courses that use it, many instructors will choose to include that material directly in those courses. Such a choice is mainly justified on the grounds that students can see more clearly the fundamental mathematical dimensions of the discipline where these topics are integrated rather than taught in a separate mathematics course.

Programming Languages: Principles and Paradigms by Allen Tucker and Robert Noonan provides balanced coverage of both the principles of language design and the different programming paradigms. 
The principles of language design are covered using a formal model and a hands-on laboratory suite that uses a Java interpreter to implement the formal model. This approach gives students an excellent grasp of language design theory and its relationship to practice. It also lays the foundation for the paradigms that are presented in the second half of the book. 
The text presents and contrasts six major programming paradigms: imperitave, object-oriented, functional, logic, concurrent, and event-driven programming. Through the use of one language for each paradigm, students gain a deep understanding of the paradigm without being distracted by a profusion of languages.
