Contents:
Part One: Introduction: computers and problem solving. Problem definition. Pieces of algorithms. Recursive algorithms. Designing the algorithm. Case studies of algorithms. Some fundamental algorithms. More fundamental algorithms involving lists. Comparing and analyzing algorithms. The concept of data. Part Two: Introduction to Pascal programming. Structure of a Pascal program. Producing output from a program. Constants and variables. Input data from a keyboard. Procedures and the flow of data. Choosing alternatives. Arithmetic with integers. Indefinite iteration. Conditional expressions and Boolean variables. Definite iteration. Reals. Defining ordinal types. Functions. One-dimensional arrays. Multi-dimensional arrays. Arrays of arrays. Records. Sets. Files. Pointers and dynamic data. Other dynamic data structures. Other topics.
Summary: This text presents problem-solving techniques and rules of abstract programming in detail before language syntax. Part One gives students a solid foundation in conceptual problem-solving, language independent program design skills and algorithmic thinking.
