Description and Table of Contents
Description
Combining the advantages of a textbook and an encyclopaedic dictionary, this book contains around 1500 notions covering both current trends in computer science and information technology course requirements. All the notions are explained by examples and more than 600 illustrations. The emphasis is on clear and concise definitions and the book contains many algorithms and programs, usually written in PASCAL. The articles for each main keyword are self-contained and refer to only a very few other keywords. Notions connected with the main keyword are defined within the same section. The dictionary describes all the important programming languages, listing their special features, and giving one or more examples that make it easy to compare the languages.
