The first and only modernization of the "bible" of Alcoholics Anonymous, A Simple Program provides an accessible, gender-equal translation for today's readers while maintaining the book's complete core text, which serves as the basis of all 12-step programs.

This best-selling publication is designed for readers who want to solve common business challenges through programming techniques. Readers are guided to properly define the problem, divide it into modules, design a solution algorithm, and prove the algorithms correctness, before commencing any program code. By using pseudocode and modern programming techniques, the programmer can concentrate on developing a well-designed and correct solution, and thus eliminate many frustrating hours at the testing phase. This comprehensive and practical text provides thorough coverage and practical examples relating to business applications, and features a consistently structured approach when representing algorithms in hierarchy charts. The text is divided into two sections, the first covering algorithm design in the context of traditional programming and languages, and the second addressing algorithm design in the context of object-oriented programming.Coverage of these two key contexts equips students with the knowledge to solve day-to-day common business programming errors.

The first and only modernization of the "bible" of Alcoholics Anonymous, A Simple Program provides an accessible, gender-equal translation for today's readers while maintaining the book's complete core text, which serves as the basis of all 12-step programs.

Helps students undertaking their first computer-programming course to develop sound programming skills. Teaches students how properly to define the problem, how to design a solution algorithm, how to divide the algorithm into modules, and how to prove the algorithm's correctness, before commencing any program coding.

This work was born from the need found by the author to solve various problems repeated over time, concerning the data inserted in Excel sheets in the shortest possible time. The author, being a programmer and expert in Pascal, Cobol and Javascript, searched for the most suitable solution and found it in the Excel VBA. This document is intended to introduce users to programming in general and to programming in Visual Basic for Applications of Excel in particular. VBA is simple and can be used on existing Excel files, quickly processing a large amount of data. The only tool we need is Excel. The book may not contain everything you should know about programming in VBA, but it does point the finger at the key points to create some programs which are explained in detail in the various chapters. The content is divided into two parts, one which explains programming in general and the second which explains programming in VBA with concrete examples of programs.
