As a student

I had the pleasure of being one of the test audiences for this particular book. I'm basing my review on my copy, 1,000+ pages of photocopied draft. I was introduced to it via a full-year course taught by Dr. Temblay and Dr. Cheston.The book is basically about a couple things: Writing superior Data Types via OO processes and an introdution to OO developement. The section on datatypes is very good. The datatypes are constructed using string OO processes (the cd contains all the code for the datatypes created in the book) and are a good learning process. There is an emphasis on abstraction and generics in the design which is an intelligent way to do things, and I learned a lot about datatypes and OO through this. The section on formal ADTs, however, I found incomprehensible, but others may have different opinions.The authors do focus on important OO concepts like UML and use cases, the brief section on software design suggests using the waterfall method. This section is fairly good, and is a decent introduction for a subject that can be fleshed out in further classes. It is still introductory however. For instance, patterns are not heavily mentioned, nor other development practices.Other ideas focused on were mathematical induction, a strong section on testing, sorting theory and files as well as algorithm timing and reccurence relations.This is a good book, and most undergrad students could likely learn a lot from it, assuming they are willing to spend a little time learning eiffel.
