Book Description

June 30, 1995 013482282X 978-0134822822 1
One of the only books of its kind to focus soley on business applications, this comprehensive introduction to ANSI C programming conforms to the ANSI C standard and is geared for users with little programming experience. Sensibly o rganized, it explains concepts in a clear, understandable language supported by many fully worked-out examples; highlights important definitions, concepts, and rules; and illustrates key ideas in over 70 complete example programs. Contains nearly 600 exercises, experiments and programming problems of varying types and levels of difficulty. Each chapter: includes exercises on the syntax and semantics of C; and provides programming problems ranging from 10- to 20-line programs to full-scale projects that require the use of several user-defined functions—all emphasizing business applications of C. Covers basic data types, variables, arithmetic operators, precedence rules, and the printf() and scanf() functions in short, easily digestible units. Discusses the basic control structures of programming and their applications, covering such topics as indefinite iteration—with a complete analysis of the while statement—, and the if statement in its major application, processing payrolls. Introduces the idea of a function gradually, and includes detailed sections on the four applications that use functions, namely, calculating interest, approving loan applications, calculating commissions, and displaying a table of powers. Examines how to access array elements and process an array correctly. Explains the importance of pointers, using illustrative programs to show how to count characters in a string, display a string in reverse, and count words in a string. Studies typedef and structures, and exlains how to sort and search a table, including both sequential and binary searches. Offers a thorough treatment of file processing in C. For business managers, and those in computer science fields.

2.0 out of 5 stars C++ for Business Programing, December 9, 1999
This was my first C++ book required for my inital Programing class. I found the book somewhat helpfull in the class but, would not have been able to follow the much to complex examples with out the assistance of the instructor. The real downfall came when the end of chapter exercises required a grater knoledge of C++ than given in the book! With my further education in programing there are much cheeper books on the market that do a better job for a first time programer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!!, September 27, 2002
By A Customer
This book was perfect for my class. It was clear and informative. This text has given me an enthusiasm for computer programming that I never thought possible. Though others may have found it to be unclear and difficult to understand, I must disagree adamantly. The specific examples were profoundly useful. I am now confident in my understanding of C++ and look forward to any other texts I may encounter in the future by Mr. Molluzzo.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for begginers, January 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: C for Business Programming (Textbook Binding)
This is a book that was required for my CIS class. I found it very easy to follow and most of the examples of programs were very useful and ran without any problems. I'm now in my second semester and once again it is a required text which I am happy to be using. I've read other C++ books and have to admit this books style of programming is a lot more clear. I would recommend this book to just about anyone interested in learning C or C++.
