• About this textbook
  

•                                         This book is needed because Python is becoming the language through which freshman computer science and engineering students are introduced to the concepts of programming and computer science
•                                         This book is a timely and strong alternative to the existing textbooks
•                                         This book introduces concepts by starting with the Q/A 'WHY'? and proceeds by the Q/A 'HOW'?. Most other books start with the Q/A 'WHAT'? which is then followed by a 'HOW'?
•                                         The CS content of this book is not hijacked by a programming language
  

The current text provides a clear introduction to Computer Science concepts in a programming  environment. It is designed as suitable use in freshman- or introductory level coursework in CS and provides the fundamental concepts as well as abstract  theorems for solving computational problems. The Python language serves as a medium for illustrating and demonstrating the concepts.
