Breaking down tasks : using decomposition / by Schmermund, Elizabeth,author.(CARDINAL)340546;
Includes bibliographical references (page 30) and index."All pieces of hardware and software involve multiple systems and features working together to complete tasks. Therefore, innovations in computer science require breaking down large goals into small, manageable parts. This book shows readers how achieving programmatic goals is not so different from achieving personal goals, elaborating on the mechanics of computer programming in an easy-to-follow way."--Amazon.com.620L

Clean C++ 20 : sustainable software development patterns and best practices / by Roth, Stephan,author.;
Includes bibliographic references and index.Introduction -- Build a safety net -- Be principled -- Basics of Clean C++ -- Advanced concepts of modern C++ -- Modularization -- Functional programming -- Test-driven development -- Design patterns and idioms -- Small UML guide"Write maintainable, extensible, and durable software with modern C++. This book, updated for the recently released C++20 standard, is a must for every developer, software architect, or team leader who is interested in well-crafted C++ code, and thus also wants to save development costs. If you want to teach yourself about writing better C++ code, Clean C++20 is exactly what you need. It is written for C++ developers of all skill levels and shows by example how to write understandable, flexible, maintainable, and efficient C++ code. Even if you are a seasoned C++ developer, there are nuggets and data points in this book that you will find useful in your work. If you don't take care with your codebase, you can produce a large, messy, and unmaintainable beast in any programming language. However, C++ projects in particular are prone to get messy and tend to slip into a maintenance nightmare. There is lots of C++ code out there that looks as if it was written in the 1980s, completely ignoring principles and practices of well-written and modern C++. It seems that C++ developers have been forgotten by those who preach Software Craftsmanship and Clean Code principles. The web is full of C++ code examples that may be very fast and highly optimized, but whose developers have completely ignored elementary principles of good design and well-written code. This book will explain how to avoid this and how to get the most out of your C++ code. You'll find your coding becomes more efficient and, importantly, more fun. You will: Gain sound principles and rules for clean coding in C++ ; Learn and carry out test-driven development (TDD) ; Learn principles for a better modularize your C++ code base ; Discover and apply C++ design patterns and idioms ; Learn how to write C++ code in an object-oriented, as well as in a functional programming style." -- Provided by publisher.
