Structured Programming with C++

Description

This book is intended as course material for the course Structured Programming with C/C++ at university level. It contains eight chapters, one for each lecture of the course. The purpose of the course Structured Programming with C/C++ is primarily to teach how to ”think programming” and secondarily to teach C++ code. Therefore, the author of the book says, I will emphasize how to focus on the problem solution and prepare the coding. JSP (Jackson Structured Programming) is a common tool within programming and is used to structure a problem. You will learn how to use JSP to build your solution. Flow chart is an alternate tool to JSP, which we also will make some notice to. Primarily, this is a beginner’s course in C, but we will utilize some C++ tools for e.g. input and output. Learning to program is not made in short time. It requires long-term and patient work with reading, coding, testing and debugging. There is no shortcut, but if you work with endurance, you will have many times of inspiration and nice experiences. In this book the readers will read Introduction to programming, What does it mean to program, Coding, Compiling and linking, The first steps with visual C++, Variables, Why variables, Declaring variables, Assignment, Initiating variables, Constants, More about assignment of values, The main function, Input and output, An entry program, Formatted output, Invoice program, Time conversion program, Type conversion, The random number generator, Game program, Exercises, Selections and loops, if statement, Price calculation program, Comparison operators, Even or Odd, else if, and (&&, or (ll), Conditional input, The switch statement, Menu program, Loops, The while loop, The for loop, Addition program, Double loop, Roll Dice, Two dice roll, Breaking entry with Ctrl-Z, Pools,
