Java provides the engineer and scientist with an efficient and easy-to-use tool for problem solving in today's web-based environment. This text draws on a wide range of engineering and scientific problems to teach Java by example. From the start, solutions are presented via a special graphics package so that the reader can appreciate the physical significance of the underlying mathematics. Covers all of the Java language, its standard libraries and utilities. In terms of programming, it covers object-orientation, software design, structured programming, graphical user interfacing, data representation, animation and networking.

Based on the very successful second edition of Pascal Precisely, this book introduces Pascal in a modern and structured style, drawing on a wide range of engineering and scientific problems to teach by example. This is the ideal text for engineering and science students taking introductory programming courses, and will be equally valuable for professionals who need to learn Pascal. Features • early introduction to procedures as a structuring tool • use of pseudo code charts in algorithm development • over 60 worked examples with complete programs and test runs, 5 large case studies and over 100 set problems
