About the Book

Aimed at all scientists and engineering professionals who need to learn programming quickly and easily, this book teaches computer programming from the ground up with Microsoft QuickBASIC, a modern, fast and easy-to-learn programming language. Examples used throughout the book are useful for students and professionals in chemistry, physics and engineering. The book covers the basics and then proceeds to more sophisticated programs using a disk enclosed with the book, containing pre-tested procedures for important operations such as graphing (screen printer, plotters); data entry/edit/save/retrieve; file management; linear regression; cubic spline interpolation; Romberg integration; differential equations; and Fourier transform. These routines give many of the advantages of a spreadsheet, but with a simpler and more powerful programming language. This book shows the reader what these routines do and how to use them effectively. The accompanying disk runs on any IBM or compatible microcomputer with a graphics board, 640K RAM, DOS 3.0 or higher, and a copy of Microsoft QuickBASIC (verion 4.0 or higher).
