Collection of Alice 3D “example worlds” on CD-ROM – Students can load an example world and enter their own code to make it work. Study how/when/where you want, even offline. Students discover how Alice blends traditional problem-solving techniques with Hollywood-style storyboarding. Javascript is not enabled in your browser.

 | 400 pp. Dr. Cooper's research interests lie in the semantics of programming languages as well as in program visualization. Broad coverage of object-oriented, event-driven, and advanced programming concepts – Introduces students to a broad cross-section of the concepts and techniques contemporary programmers need to master, including classes, objects, methods, parameters, events, functions, control statements, list processing, inheritance, and more. ¿ Alice was designed to make programming concepts easier to teach and learn. Her research has encompassed program visualization and object-oriented and event-driven programming.  | Pearson, ©2012 The book’s Java-like syntax allows students to view their program code, simplifying their transitions to Java, C++, C#, or other object-oriented languages.
