Overview

Introducing students to the basics of programming via an easy-to-learn object-oriented language. As with all Gaddis texts, clear and easy-to-read code listings, concise and practical real-world examples, focused explanations, and an abundance of exercises appear in every chapter. Updates to the 4th Edition includes revised, improved problems throughout, and new Turtle Graphics sections that provide flexibility as assignable, optional material.
