This interactive textbook is intended to be used in and outside of class. Each chapter follows a pattern of presenting a topic followed by a practice exercise or exercises that encourage students to try what they have just read. This textbook is best-suited for students with a 2-3 course introduction to imperative programming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features: (1) Accessible structure guides the student through various programming languages. (2) Seamlessly integrated practice exercises. (3) Classroom-tested. (4) Online support materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdvance praise: \u003cbr\u003e“The Programming Languages book market is overflowing with books, but none like this. In many ways, it is precisely the book I have been searching for to use in my own programming languages course. One of the main challenges I perpetually face is how to teach students to program in functional and logical languages, but also how to teach them about compilers. This book melds the two approaches very well.” -- David Musicant, Carleton College\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-11-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781441946362\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-79421-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 282\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47671489659020,"sku":"9781441946362","price":116.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781441946362.jpg?v=1776515572","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781441946362","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
