Fortran remains one of the principal languages used in the fields of scientific, numerical,
and engineering programming, and a series of revisions to the standard defining successive
versions of the language has progressively enhanced its power and kept it competitive with
several generations of rivals.
Learning C++ is an adventure of discovery, particularly because the language accommodates several programming paradigms, including object-oriented programming, generic programming, and the traditional procedural programming.The fifth edition of this book described the language as set forth in the ISO C++ standards, informally known as C++99...
The ultimate, definitive programming language has not been created yet, far from it.
Almost every day a new language is created, and new functionalities are added to
existing languages. Improvements in programming languages contribute to making
programs more reliable, shorten the development time, and make programs easier
to...
2011 was a special year for C++. With the ratification of the new standard, C++11
empowers you to write better code using new keywords and constructs that increase your
programming efficiency. This book helps you learn C++11 in tiny steps. It has been
thoughtfully divided into lessons that teach you the fundamentals of this...
Programming Language Concepts uses a functional programming language (F#) as the metalanguage in which to present all concepts and examples, and thus has an operational flavour, enabling practical experiments and exercises. It includes basic concepts such as abstract syntax, interpretation, stack machines, compilation, type checking, and...
When we wrote the first edition of iPhone SDK Development, we knew we
weren’t writing something like The C Programming Language that would live
on unchanged for decades. But was two years on the shelf too much to ask
for?
Apparently so! And we’re not complaining. Since the release of...
The purpose of this book is to provide a practical compendium of algorithms for use in applications. Unlike most works on algorithms, this book is not a textbook: you will not find implementation details left as an exercise for the reader, nor will you find highly theoretical discussions of algorithms with small snippets of code...
Any attempt to list the 50 most important battles in all history is necessarily
subjective. To list them in order of importance is an even greater exercise
of chutzpah. Nevertheless, people have been listing decisive battles since
Sir Edward Creasy, a lawyer who taught history, a century-and-a-half ago.
Other compilers include...
This book was written to support a short course in the second or third year of
an undergraduate computer science, software engineering, or software design
program. The prerequisites are fairly modest: some programming experience
(ideally in С or С++ or a related language such as Java) and some exposure
to the most basic...
C++11 has arrived: thoroughly master it, with the definitive new guide from C++ creator Bjarne Stroustrup, C++ Programming Language, Fourth Edition! The brand-new edition of the world's most trusted and widely read guide to C++, it has been comprehensively updated for the long-awaited C++11 standard....
With 11 invited submissions from leading researchers and teams of researchers sharing one common characteristic ? all have worked with Dr. Judith Bishop during her long and continuing career as a leader in computer science education and research ? this book reflects on Dr Bishop?s outstanding contribution to computer science....
Some type of software system is an integral part of almost any computer-
based information processing system. While many books describing some
aspects of software systems are available, few, if any, take an approach
sufficiently broad to include all the topics of importance to understanding
the design and operation of such...
