From the Publisher:
This classic text provides a broad introduction to the field of computing. Author Stephen Garland uses applications of computing to provide a context in which to develop, apply, and analyze computational techniques. A complete treatment of Pascal is integrated into the text, serving primarily to make the book's coverage concrete rather than abstract.
