Product Description
This book is the third and final volume in a series entitled "The Modula-2 Software Component Library." C. Lins' collection of reusable standard software components could be the basis for every programmer's software project in Modula-2. Components that are implementations of commonly used data structures are presented, along with a description of their functionality and efficiency. Moreover, the books provide the background necessary to tailor these components to the specific needs of any Modula-2 environment. For Modula-2 programmers, this series of books could prove as useful and indispensible as the original language reference by Niklaus Wirth. This third volume discusses the concepts of trees and graphs, shows their specifications, and provides implementations for various forms of trees and graphs. ... Read more

Product Description
Modula-2 is the latest in the line of high level languages which, with improvements in microprocessors and memory devices, can now be used in microcomputer applications. This language has been specifically designed with the features of enhancing software reliability, quality, portability, maintainability and cost control in mind. The subject is introduced through a self-teaching process, which explains the rules and structure of the language, showing why it is useful for microcomputer applications. Although software design is not taught directly in the text, language support design requirements are always shown. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students taking a first course in Modula-2, in departments of electrical and electronic engineering and computer science; mechanical and chemical engineering. ...

Product Description
Dieses Buch, in dessen Titel sich "Einführung in die Programmierung" und "Programmierung mit Modula-2" verbinden, wendet sich sowohl an den Programmieranfänger, als auch an den erfahrenen Programmierer, der die Sprache Modula-2 erlernen will. Einerseits vermittelt es ein solides Grundwissen der Programmiertechnik und führt in zeitgemäße Methoden des Programmentwurfs ein, andererseits gibt es eine handbuchartige Beschreibung der Programmiersprache Modula-2 und übt ihren methodischen Gebrauch an vielen Beispielen ein. Die von Niklaus Wirth stammende Programmiersprache Modula-2 hat, im Gegensatz zu Programmiersprachen wie Ada, COBOL oder PL/I, einen geringen Sprachumfang und ist daher leicht erlernbar. Trotzdem enthält sie alle Sprachelemente, die zur Formulierung kompliziertester Algorithmen und zur Realisierung der modernen Konzepte des Software Engineering erforderlich sind. Modula-2 zeichnet sich durch einen systematischen Aufbau aus, ermöglicht das Schreiben gut lesbarer Programme, unterstützt moderne Prinzipien des Software Engineering und eignet sich zur Implementierung auf Mikrocomputern; all dies macht die Sprache zu einem wertvollen Instrument auch zur Einführung in die Grundlagen der Programmierung. Die meisten Kapitel und viele Abschnitte enthalten Übungsaufgaben, die dem Leser helfen sollen, das erlernte Wissen zu vertiefen und seinen Wissensstand zu überprüfen. Das Buch unterscheidet sich von vielen Büchern über Programmiersprachen vor allem dadurch, daß das Hauptgewicht nicht auf der Programmiersprache selbst, sondern auf der Programmiermethodik liegt. In der bereits 1 1/2 Jahre nach Erscheinen des Buches vorliegenden 2. Auflage wurden alle bekanntgewordenen Fehler und Unklarheiten beseitigt. ... Read more
