It includes examples and problems presented in the context of technical applications with each area of technology clearly defined to stimulate student interest and illustrates new concepts by guiding students through fundamental examples rather than bogging them down in mathematical complexities or technical details.

Synopsis

Students are introduced to the concept of structured programming while learning BASIC. Only elementary algebra is needed. Many simple examples are used and practical technical applications are explored. The second edition places more emphasis on using the BASIC editor, a new appendix contains BASIC editor commands and more advanced DOS commands, an
