商品描述

本書序言

    This eighth edition of Invitation to Computer Science addresses a number of emerging issues in computer science. We have added new material on ransomware, code repositories, electronic payment systems, new programming languages such as R and Milk, data science, artificial intelligence, and drones. There is an entirely new section on fake news, politics, and social media.

    New and updated Special Interest Boxes highlight interesting historical vignettes, new developments in computing, biographies of important people in the field, and news items showing how computing affects our everyday lives.

本書特色

●ACTIONABLE AND MEASURABLE LEARNING OBJECTIVES EMPHASIZE IMPORTANT CONCEPTS. Newly added learning objectives guide students through the edition, calling attention to critical key points.
●SOLID OVERVIEW PRESENTS BREADTH OF COMPUTER SCIENCE WITHOUT PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE SPECIFICS. The authors expertly present a language-independent, breadth-first introduction to computer science that includes coverage of today's hardware, software, and applications as well as a modern view of ethics.
●UNIQUE APPROACH INTEGRATES TOPICS USING THE CONCEPT OF ALGORITHMS. Rather than simply present a large collection of seemingly random and unrelated topics, the authors tie the discipline of computer science together using a six-layer hierarchy that clearly demonstrates how the subjects in the book relate to each other. Student gain a clear understanding of the entire discipline of computer science that prepares them for future study in this field.
●EXTENSIVE EXERCISES AND PROBLEMS PROVIDE NUMEROUS OPPORTUNITIES FOR CONCEPT APPLICATION. You can choose from a wealth of proven exercise sets and practice problems to give your students the applied, real-world experience they need.
●SPECIAL INTEREST BOXES HIGHLIGHT THE LATEST AND TECHNOLOGY AS WELL AS HISTORIC BACKGROUND. Topics range from "Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Musa Al-Khowarizmi" to "The Internet of Things" as students examine news items relating computing to everyday lives, updates on new advancements in technology, and bits of historical information.
●OPTION TO INTEGRATE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES OFFERS ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY. With this adaptable text, you have the option to seamlessly incorporate one or more programming languages into your course. Corresponding online modules introduce Java, C++, Python, C# or Ada.
●LAB SOFTWARE AND LAB EXERCISES WORK SEAMLESSLY WITH THE TEXT. This edition's online Lab Manual and lab software package offer hands-on opportunities for your students to gain better understanding of the text's concepts

本書序言

    本書第八版《計算機科學導論》探討了計算機科學中的多個新興議題。我們新增了有關勒索病毒、代碼庫、電子支付系統、新的程式語言如 R 和 Milk、數據科學、人工智慧以及無人機的內容。還新增了一個完全關於假新聞、政治和社交媒體的部分。

    新增和更新的特別興趣框突顯了有趣的歷史小插曲、計算領域的新發展、重要人物的傳記,以及顯示計算如何影響我們日常生活的新聞項目。

本書特色

● 可行且可衡量的學習目標強調重要概念。新增加的學習目標引導學生通過本書,呼喚關鍵要點的注意。

● 堅實的概述呈現計算機科學的廣度而不涉及程式語言的具體內容。作者專業地提供了一個獨立於語言的、廣度優先的計算機科學介紹,涵蓋當今的硬體、軟體和應用,以及現代倫理觀。

● 獨特的方法使用算法的概念整合主題。作者並非僅僅呈現一大堆看似隨機且無關的主題,而是利用六層層級結構將計算機科學的學科聯繫在一起,清楚地展示書中主題之間的關係。學生能夠清楚理解整個計算機科學學科,為未來在該領域的學習做好準備。

● 廣泛的練習和問題提供了多次應用概念的機會。您可以從大量經過驗證的練習集和實踐問題中選擇,為您的學生提供所需的應用實踐經驗。

● 特別興趣框突顯最新技術及其歷史背景。主題範圍從「阿布·賈法爾·穆罕默德·伊本·穆薩·阿爾-科瓦里茲米」到「物聯網」,學生在檢視與日常生活相關的計算新聞項目、新技術進展的更新以及歷史資訊片段。

● 整合程式語言的選項提供了最終的靈活性。透過這本可調整的教材,您可以選擇無縫地將一種或多種程式語言納入您的課程。相應的線上模組介紹 Java、C++、Python、C# 或 Ada。

● 實驗室軟體和實驗室練習與教材無縫協作。本版的線上實驗手冊和實驗室軟體包為您的學生提供了動手機會,以更好地理解教材中的概念。
