This book is designed to teach beginning C++ to those who are not necessarily going to work in a technical discipline where a strong math background is needed. To that end, C++ Coach: Essentials for Introductory Programming is ideal for students in the Information Systems or Business areas who will use programming for information acquisition and processing rather than high-level computations. The text is thoughtfully divided into three sections. The first section provides a basic understanding of programming constructs such as variables, operators, conditional statements, loops, and functions. The second section concentrates on introducing additional features of C++ such as arrays, structures, classes, pointers, and files. The third section of the book describes the benefits and implementations of some simple C++ data structures, helping students appreciate the issues of performance that they'll see when dealing with real-world problems. The approach of this book is to focus more on C++ syntax than on the large number of C++ language constructs, and teaches the student through extensive practice and "skill and drill" type exercises. As the basic building blocks of the C++ language are presented, students repeatedly practice with programming drills until they understand both the fundamentals and subtleties of the C++ language. These programming drills are supplemented with a variety of real world examples of programming problems that build upon the knowledge gained from the drills.
