Martin L. Barrett and Clifford Wagner combine the efficiency of C
with the productivity of UNIX, and give you the foundation to build
stronger programming skills! This clear, concise book is written
for experienced programmers, as well as those with a background in
mathematics, engineering, and science. Five principles guide you
through a complete course in programming: . Emphasis on software
design via program and data structure design, the design of tables,
data encapsulation, and the use of abstract data types solidifies
all aspects of the design process. The development of C and UNIX
simultaneously, yet independently of one another, allows you to
develop skills in both languages, or focus on them individually.
Chapter summaries, review problems, and numerous practical
programming problems enable you to tie several different concepts
together in a coherent scheme. Extensive examples covering
scientific problems, applied mathematics, and floating point
arithmetic broaden the spectrum of computer science and
programming. Problems feature the ideal gas law, the accuracy of
summations, root finding, the future value of an annuity,
simulation, time series smoothing, image processing, integrals,
descriptive statistics, fuzzy sets, and sparse arrays. A focus on
basic principles gives you the groundwork for understanding data
structures, analysis of algorithms, numerical analysis, computer
graphics, and compiler design.
