Overview

If you want to learn the fundamentals of programming, don't get bogged down with pages of technical jargon that most books on the market offer! Instead, explore Clearly Visual Basic: Programming with Visual Basic 2008, an innovative book that prides itself on teaching the basics of programming through visualization and application. Designed for beginners with little or no previous programming experience, this resource emphasizes solid programming principles and teaches the Visual Basic language in the process. By putting standard concepts, like input, output, selection, and repetition, at the forefront, instead of focusing solely on a specific language, readers will gain knowledge and insight that is easily transferable to other languages.

Without a doubt, the Clearly VB students have more of a grasp of the material this semester. The foundation provided by the first few chapters on algorithms was practiced throughout the course. Practically all the students have a very good understanding of arrays and classes, which is usually their downfall. The approach of going from a one-dimensional array to parallel arrays, and then to two-dimensional was perfect.

We have been considering the possibility of adding an Introductory to Programming course without using the major aspects of the various languages. This would be an ideal textbook for this type of course. (Michael Walton a Miami Dade College)

I am very excited about this proposal. I would seriously consider adopting this text for my Intro to Computer Programming Course.
