This lab is intended to give students an opportunity to understand the syntax and semantics of the language as they move through the course. The author feels that learning through laboratory activities is the ideal way for students to truly understand a difficult language. This manual can be used in either a closed (faculty supervised) or open (without supervision) lab setting. Each chapter is organized into three types of activities Prelab, In-lab, and Post-lab. The Prelab activities include a reading review assignment and simple paper and pencil exercises. The In-lab activities are broken into lessons, each of which represents a concept covered in the chapter. The Post-lab exercises are a collection of outside programming assignments appropriate for each chapter.
Customer Review: It helps to have the companion book.
In response to the review by rfraley, this book is intended as a companion to _Programming and Problem Solving with C++_ (2 ed.) by Dale, Weems, and Headington. The Lab Course book by itself may seem incomplete.
I have not yet worked with the Lab Course book, but I am using the P&PSw/C++ book in a Master's level programming course.
Customer Review: Is there a no star choice?
These labs were the epitome of drudgery. This book did not give you the resources to complete the excercises and I had to buy another text (C++ How To Program by Deitel and Deitel) just so I could complete the labs. Steer clear, unless you have to use this book in your CS class, of course.
