This new edition of Walls and Mirrors presents the important concepts of data abstraction and data structures using C++ as the language of implementation. The text formally introduces students to classes along with other basic concepts of object-oriented programming, including inheritance and virtual functions. The emphasis of the text, however, remains on abstract data types (ADTs), not on C++. Numerous examples of ADTs implemented as classes are examined including lists, stacks, queues, trees, heaps, graphs, and tables. The text covers recursion extensively, ensuring that students receive a firm grounding in this important topic. Audience: Freshman / Sophomore / Junior Computer Science majors / non-majors Courses: Intermediate / Advanced Programming Data Structures Prerequisites: Introduction to Programming 0805312269B04062001

Hardcover. Condition: Collectible-Very Good. This classic book has been revised to enhance its focus on data abstraction and data structures using C++. It provides a firm foundation in data abstraction, emphasizing the distinction between specification and implementation as the foundation for an object-oriented approach. Author Frank Carrano covers key object-oriented concepts, including encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism. However, the focus remains on data abstraction instead of simply C++ syntax. He illustrates the role of classes and ADTs in the problem-solving process, and includes major applications of ADTs, such as searching a flight map and event-driven simulation. The book offers early, extensive coverage of recursion and uses this technique in many examples and exercises. It also introduces analysis Of algorithms and the Big 'O' notation. In addition, an appendix reviews basic C++ syntax for those who either have studied the language previously or are making the transition from another language to C++. Seller Inventory # 9780805312263
