Virtually all business, scientific, and engineering applications are heavily reliant on numeric data items. C++ and Java offer object-oriented programmers unique flexibility and control over the computations required within such applications.
However, most books on object-oriented programming gloss over such numeric data items, emphasizing instead one-dimensional containers or collections and components of the graphical user interface.
Object-Oriented Computation in C++ and Java fills the gap left by such books.
Drawing on more than twenty years' experience as a software developer, tester, consultant, and professor, Conrad Weisert shows readers how to use numeric objects effectively.
Not limited to any language or methodology, the concepts and techniques discussed in this book are entirely independent of one's choice of design and coding methodology.
Practitioners of Extreme Programming, UML-driven design, agile methods, incremental development, and so on will all develop these same data classes.
Whether you are a seasoned professional or an advanced computer science student, this book can teach you techniques that will improve the quality of your programming and the efficiency of your applications. The exercises (and answers) presented in this book with teach you new ways to implement the computational power of C++, Java, and numeric data items.
Topics include
taxonomy of data types
developing and using object-oriented classes for numeric data
design patterns for commonly occurring numeric data types
families of interacting numeric data types
choosing efficient and flexible internal data representations
techniques for exploiting pattern reuse in C++
conventions for arithmetic operations in Java
numeric vectors and matrices
CONRAD WEISERT is a leader and innovator in applying systematic approaches to information system design and large-scale project management. Before establishing Information Disciplines, Inc., a Chicago consulting firm, he was responsible for data-center operations, application system development, professional staff training, and technical services at numerous large organizations. Through his firm, he consults to banks, insurance companies, manufacturers, local government agencies, and computer service firms, to demonstrate the effectiveness of modern, enlightened methods in producing high-quality results. He has been active as a member of and speaker at various professional organizations for more than twenty years, and now, in addition to training done through his consulting practice, teaches computer science courses at Loyola University.
