About the Book
If you are new to computer programming
then this book is for you! Starting from scratch, it assumes no prior knowledge
of programming and is written in a simple, direct style for maximum clarity.
C# ('C Sharp') is an object-oriented,
network-enabled programming language, developed expressly for Microsoft's
.Net platform. C# provides the features that are the most important
to programmers: object-orientation, graphics, GUI components, multimedia,
internet-based client/server networking and distributed computing.
'C# for Students' will explain key
programming concepts and the central ideas of object oriented programming,
using C# as the vehicle language.
Features
-
Programming for graphics is used from the
start, and graphics are used repeatedly throughout the text to illustrate
ideas. This approach engages the interest of the reader and improves
their understanding.
-
Objects introduced later. Delaying the
coverage of objects until basic control structures and methods have been
covered gives a firm foundation to the understanding of programming
-
Complete programs are used rather than fragments
to aid understanding
-
Examples (an information system, computer
game and a mathematical problem) are used to illustrate key programming
concepts throughout the text
-
Self test questions will appear on every page,
as well as exercises, programming principles and programming pitfalls.
The book is accompanied by a full online supplements package
