Data Abstraction and Problem Solving with C++: Walls and Mirrors

Frank M. Carrano, Universityof Rhode Island

 

This fifth edition of the classic, best-selling book Data Abstraction and

Problem Solving with C++: Walls and Mirrors continues to offer students a superior foundation in data abstraction, object-oriented programming, and problem-solving techniques. The focus is on core abstract data types with the consistent use of data abstraction emphasizing the distinction between specification and implementation.

Fifth Edition highlights:

• Completely revised software engineering concepts to conform with modern practice

• NEW! Introduces techniques for testing software

• NEW! Presents ADT (abstract data type) behaviors as operation contracts

• Includes extensive coverage of object-oriented programming techniques

• NEW! Includes an introduction to Doxygen, a documentation generator for

C++ that is similar to Javadoc

• Contains major applications of ADTs, such as searching a flight map, event-driven simulation, and the eight queens problem

• Covers the use of the Standard Template Library (STL), with examples included in most chapters

• Updated all C++ code to ensure compliance with the latest ANSI standards

• Includes “Review of C++ Fundamentals” appendix for students who are making the transition to C++ from another language

Quatrième de couverture

Focusing on data abstraction and data structures, the second edition of this very successful books continues to emphasize the needs of both the instructor and the student. The book illustrates the role of classes and abstract data types (ADTs) in the problem-solving process as the foundation for an object-oriented approach. Throughout the text, the distinction between specification and implementation is continually stressed. The text covers major applications of ADTs, such as searching a flight map and performing an event-driven simulation. It also offers early, extensive coverage of recursion and uses this technique in many examples and exercises. Overall, the lucid writing style, widespread use of examples, and flexible coverage of the materia have helped make this a leading book in the field.

New in this Edition

• Uses recent enhancements to C++, such as data type bool and C++ strings
• States ADT operations in English, specifies them in pseudocode, and finally implements them in C++. Students can see more clearly the progression from an informal statement of an operation to a more formal specification.
• Offers new and revised examples of ADTs that clarify their relationships to classes as well as new coverage of dynamically allocated arrays and circuits
• Provides more balance between numeric and nonnumeric examples of recursion
• Contains many new exercises and programming problems
