About the Book

Prepare beginning programmers with the most important principles for developing structured program logic with Farrell's highly effective PROGRAMMING LOGIC AND DESIGN, COMPREHENSIVE, 7E. This popular text takes a unique, language-independent approach to programming with a distinctive emphasis on modern conventions. The book's clear, concise writing style eliminates highly technical jargon while introducing universal programming concepts and encouraging a strong programming style and logical thinking. This edition's clearer, revised explanations utilize flowcharts, pseudocode, and diagrams to ensure even readers with no prior programming experience fully understand programming and design concepts. Farrell's proven learning features help students gain a better understanding of the scope of programming today while common business examples help illustrate key points. This edition's comprehensive approach prepares readers for all programming situations with introductions to object-oriented concepts, UML diagrams and databases as students progress. Use this proven book alone or with a language-specific companion text that emphasizes C++, Java or Visual Basic for the introduction your students need for solid logic and programming success.

Features:

• UNIQUE LANGUAGE-INDEPENDENT APPROACH PROVIDES A SOLID FOUNDATION IN PROGRAMMING LOGIC. The author emphasizes modern concepts and conventions to cultivate a solid foundation in structured programming logic. Your students establish an understanding of the concepts for success, no matter what programming languages they eventually use to write programs.
• BUSINESS-BASED EXAMPLES CLEARLY ILLUSTRATE KEY POINTS. Everyday business examples require no special mathematical knowledge beyond high school algebra and clearly demonstrate key points without overwhelming students with extraneous detail.
• APPEALING, FULL-COLOR PRESENTATION VISUALLY REINFORCES CONCEPTS WITH HELPFUL CHARTS AND DIAGRAMS. The book's engaging four-color design clearly illustrates challenging programming concepts.
• WEALTH OF PROVEN PRACTICE OPPORTUNITIES KEEPS STUDENTS ENGAGED AND ACTIVELY LEARNING. Students practice and review with Review Questions in each chapter and intriguing Discussion Questions that are ideal for class debates or writing assignments. Programming Exercises include engaging gaming challenges, while Debugging Exercises improve readers' abilities to critically examine code statements. Popular "Two Truths and a Lie" quizzes provide immediate feedback on how well students understand what they've just read.
• COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH EXPLORES ALL TOPICS STUDENTS NEED FOR LOGICAL PROGRAMMING SUCCESS. This complete text introduces object-oriented concepts and explores important topics such as UML diagrams and databases as the book progresses. The author prepares readers for a wide variety of programming logic situations with thorough book chapters and six helpful appendices.
• FLEXIBLE TEXT APPROACH MAKES IT IDEAL FOR USING THE BOOK ALONE OR PAIRED WITH A LANGUAGE-SPECIFIC COMPANION TEXT. You have the flexibility of using this complete text in your stand-alone logic course or pairing this book with a companion language primer that emphasizes C++, Java™, or Visual Basic®.
• OPTIONAL VISUAL LOGIC SOFTWARE OFFERS POWERFUL, HANDS-ON RESOURCE FOR PERFECTING LOGIC AND PROGRAM DESIGN. To maximize your students' hands-on practice, Visual Logic software is available with this text. Visual Logic provides a simple, yet powerful, tool for reinforcing logic and program design with flowcharts.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
