Computer Science: An Overview (13版)

書名：Computer Science: An Overview 13/e 作者：BROOKSHEAR 出版社：Pearson 出版日期：2020/00/00 ISBN：9781292263427 內容簡介 · This text follows a bottom-up arrangement of subjects that progresses from the concrete to the abstract—an order that results in a sound pedagogical presentation in which each topic leads to the next. o Although the text follows this natural progression, the individual chapters and sections are independent and can usually be read as isolated units or rearranged to form alternative sequences of study. · Ethical and legal aspects of areas such as Internet security, software engineering, and database technology bring to light what students should know to be safe and responsible users of technology. · Uses Python code examples and Python-like pseudocode, due to its wide acceptance in other STEM fields, such as physics and biology, and as the language of choice for computational science applications. · Each chapter includes a collection of questions called Social Issues that challenge students to think about the relationship between the material in the text and the society in which they live. 目錄 0.
