Connecting with students of all levels in the Introductory Programming course, Gary Bronson builds the problem solving skills that students need to be successful in Computer Science. Bronson presents a new and unique method of introducing class and object-oriented design using familiar examples of recipes and product plans, both of which contain lists of procedures and materials. These fundamental ideas and design techniques are clearly applied throughout the text and further highlighted in the "Program Design and Development" sections in later chapters. This very well written text engages a wide variety of students. It includes a wealth of pedagogical learning aids to guide students while enriching the course for more advanced students with special features like the "Closer Look" boxes. Teaching object-oriented programming from the beginning, the book also introduces the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and provides an Internet Development Environment on the accompanying CD-ROM. Overall, this book equips students for success with a solid foundation in problem-solving and object-oriented programming.
