Fundamentals of Structured Program Design

Book excerpt: Especially designed for those with minimal computer experience, this book presents the concepts of program design in a simple, easy-to-understand “building block” format, and applies those design concepts to realistic business programs. Each chapter provides not only a complete explanation of what needs to be done in the design, but why. The book is divided into four main parts: Design Principles, Basic Program Design Techniques, and Advanced Program Design. This organization helps readers understand how the subject matter in each chapter relates to other chapters within the section— and the topic of program design as a whole. For individuals interested in the field of program design.
