Synopsis

Used at more than 100 institutions in its second edition, Using Turbo Pascal 6.0-7.0, Third Edition applies a highly successful formula of "learning by example" to your introductory Turbo Pascal programming course. The text uses small program segments as examples, breaking down the process of programming into a series of manageable steps. The author has added a new DOS tutorial and lab activities for using the Turbo 7.0 system, and given increased focus to the issue of how to write a program. The concept of procedures is introduced early in chapter 4 (in connection with top down programming design), and then is covered in detail in chapters 10 and 11, making it easy to cover or omit as needed.

About this title

Synopsis

This text is an introduction to computer programming implemented in Turbo Pascal. Though there is a strong shift in the CS curriculum towards other languages (usually C or C++), Pascal still retains the largest segment of the introductory market. This text teaches largely by example, leading students through various capabilities of the Turbo Pascal environment. It uses a hands-on approach, presenting Turbo Pascal in small, accessible chunks. Examples and concise presentation of topics show the logical flow of computer programming in Turbo Pascal. The book includes a chapter on object-oriented programming.
