<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Think Like a Programmer" teaches readers how to solve problems systematically, offering numerous techniques and examples designed to demonstrate how to organize thoughts, discover solutions, and find strategies to solve certain classes of problems.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The real challenge of programming isn't learning a language's syntax--it's learning to creatively solve problems so you can build something great. In this one-of-a-kind text, author V. Anton Spraul breaks down the ways that programmers solve problems and teaches you what other introductory books often ignore: how to <i>Think Like a Programmer</i>. Each chapter tackles a single programming concept, like classes, pointers, and recursion, and open-ended exercises throughout challenge you to apply your knowledge. <p/>You'll also learn how to: <br>-Split problems into discrete components to make them easier to solve<br>-Make the most of code reuse with functions, classes, and libraries<br>-Pick the perfect data structure for a particular job<br>-Master more advanced programming tools like recursion and dynamic memory<br>-Organize your thoughts and develop strategies to tackle particular types of problems <p/>Although the book's examples are written in C++, the creative problem-solving concepts they illustrate go beyond any particular language; in fact, they often reach outside the realm of computer science. As the most skillful programmers know, writing great code is a creative art--and the first step in creating your masterpiece is learning to <i>Think Like a Programmer</i>.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>V.
