Using the same format that has become so popular in Pascal, Karel the Robot has now become object-oriented. This book is intended to teach novice programmers the fundamentals of object-oriented programming. It accomplishes this goal with an analog equivalent of C++ that allows introductory computer science students to work through a programming project from start to finish.
The book opens by explaining the elaborate Robot world that Karel lives in, a world filled with objects. The text continues this strong metaphor throughout. Through the metaphor, students learn the art of solving programming problems in an object-oriented paradigm.
This text is suitable for any introductory or second course in computer science where C++ is used.
Joseph Bergin is a retired professor of Computer Science. He championed the teaching of modern programming paradigms, especially Object-Oriented programming, throughout his long career. Mark Stehlik is the author of Karel++: A Gentle Introduction to the Art of Object-Oriented Programming, published by Wiley.
