Starting Out with Visual Basic 2008, Fourth Edition Publisher: Addison-Wesley Copyright Year: 2009 Publishing Date: 2008/02/12
Course: Computer Science Pages: 896 DESCRIPTION In Starting Out with Visual Basic
2008, Gaddis and Irvine take a problem-solving
approach, motivating students to understand the logic behind
developing quality programs while introducing the Visual Basic 2008
language. As students become familiar with each programming
concept, they will learn how, why, and when to use various
controls, constructs, and features of Visual Basic 2008 through
concise, practical example programs.
Tony Gaddis’s accessible, step-by-step presentation helps
students with no prior programming experience understand the
important details necessary to become skilled programmers at an
introductory level. Gaddis motivates the study of both programming
skills and the Visual Basic® 2008 programming
language by presenting all the details needed to understand the
“how” and the “why”–but never losing
sight of the fact that most beginners struggle with this material.
His approach is both gradual and highly accessible, ensuring that
students understand the logic behind developing high-quality
programs.
NEW! VideoNotes, created by author
Tony Gaddis, provide extra examples and demonstrate how to solve
problems. Icons throughout the text– two to three per
chapter– and a complete index of the videos on the inside
covers indicate where a VideoNote accompanies a particular chapter
topic or an end-of-chapter Programming Project. The VideoNotes are
available to instructors and students on an open-access
website. Read More » |
