Taking a broad, applications-based approach, Sedgewick and Wayne teach through important examples from science, mathematics, engineering, finance, and commercial computing. The book demystifies computation, explains its intellectual underpinnings, and covers the essential elements of programming and computational problem-solving in today's environments. The authors begin by introducing basic programming elements such as variables, conditionals, loops, arrays, and I\/O. Next, they turn to functions, introducing key modular programming concepts, including components and reuse. They present a modern introduction to object-oriented programming, covering current programming paradigms and approaches to data abstraction. Building on this foundation, Sedgewick, and Wayne widen their focus to the broader discipline of computer science. They introduce classical sorting and searching algorithms, fundamental data structures, their application, and scientific techniques for assessing an implementation's performance. Using abstract models, readers learn to answer basic questions about computation, gaining insight for practical application. Finally, the authors show how machine architecture links the theory of computing to real computers, and to the field's history and evolution. For each concept, the authors present all the information readers need to build confidence, together with examples that solve intriguing problems. Each chapter contains question-and-answer sections, self-study drills, and challenging problems that demand creative solutions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe companion website contains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtensive supplementary information, including suggested approaches to programming assignments, checklists, and FAQs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGraphics and sound libraries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinks to program code and test data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolutions to selected exercises\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter summaries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed instructions for installing a Java programming environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed problem sets and projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCompanion 20-part series of video lectures\u003c\/b\u003e is available at informitcom\/title\/9780134493831\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Sedgewick, Kevin Wayne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Addison-Wesley Professional\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 7.50w x 1.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780134076423\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Sedgewick\u003c\/b\u003e is the William O.
