Opis

An algorithm is a solution to a class of problems generally contained in programming unit called a module and accessed by one or more objected oriented programs. A class on algorithms is a class on problem solving with the expectation of marketable results. This requires a textbook that actually provides problem solving tools. Solving the problems is hard enough. The tools should be the easy part. Practical Algorithms provides a complete toolbox from meeting the client to rolling out a scalable solution fitting the client's needs. The typical algorithms text focuses on pseudocode, which at best lays out business rules, and at worst solves nothing. As such, pseudocode is given minimal attention. Using MCSE, MCSD, and other marketable standards as a basic guideline, this text applies practical experiences in the field and classroom to make this extremely difficult material as simple as possible. This book took a failed class at multiple institutions, made the concepts accessible, and led every student to not only succeed in the class, but to have what they needed in their careers. The first subject created a line of grateful engineers and project managers on the first day of class. The subject: sales, from meet and greet to proposal and contract writing to closing the deal. Every class meeting we systematically explored vital elements to breaking down and solving problems from system and network architectures to hard coding and n-tiered databases. This book turned a failed class into a success story.
