Overview

Starting Out with Programming Logic and Design introduces programming concepts and problem-solving skills using an easy-to-understand, language-independent approach. Designed for beginning programmers, it covers fundamental programming topics and object-oriented concepts without the further complication of language syntax. Every chapter includes easy-to-read pseudocode, flowcharts, practical example programs, and application exercises. As you progress, you'll gain confidence in your skills and learn to recognize the logic behind developing high-quality programs.

The 6th Edition features improved pedagogy that gradually introduces the different ways a program's flow of execution can be directed.
