Synopsis:

KEY BENEFIT: Eiffel, one of three object-oriented programming languages after C++ and Smalltalk, is user-friendly, consistent, and relatively easy to learn. In this book, Eiffel is used to introduce the basic principles of computer science from an object-oriented perspective. KEY TOPICS: Introduces the idea of "modeling" first, and then "programming" as only one part of the overall process; details the object-oriented approach to problem solving; covers the construction of Eiffel classes; explains polymorphism as a design principle. MARKET: For software development professionals new to object technology and Eiffel.

Synopsis: This computer science work is based on the principles of object-oriented programming, since object technology is now considered a vital component in all software development. Supported by the friendly, consistent, and relatively easy-to-learn object oriented language Eiffel, it presents an entirely different approach to learning computer science by introducing the idea of "modelling" first, and then "programming" as only one part of the overall process. A complete tutorial - worked examples and problem sets are included throughout.
