Problem Solving & Structured Programming in FORTRAN

by Elliot B. Koffman, Frank L. Friedman

Addison-Wesley is pleased to offer this specially-priced update of Elliot Koffman and Frank Friedman's Fortran text. Assuming no prior knowledge of computers or programming, the authors teach effective problem-solving and program-design techniques. The text emphasizes a software engineering approach to program design and carefully applies a five-step problem-solving approach- problem specification, analysis, design, implementation, and testing/verification. Koffman and Friedman provide thorough coverage of Fortran 77, with special sections on Fortran 90, and the techniques learned serve as a solid foundation for future programming regardless of the language used. Features and Benefits "On to C" Chapter. This chapter provides a gentle introduction to C programming.Students learn C based on how they learned to program in Fortran.
