Sommario/riassunto

Ce livre propose un site web compagnon (des exercices, un programme pour faire une évaluation réaliste de son niveau, des versions audio pour s'entrainer, un répétiteur lexical pour une révision du vocabulaire scientifique, etc.) accessible gratuitement à l'adresse : http://grenoble-sciences.ujf-grenoble.fr/pap-ebooks/upjohn Cet ouvrage, devenu célèbre sous son sigle MCSE, a déjà été utilisé par environ 200 000 personnes, étudiants, chercheurs, universitaires, ingénieurs. L’objectif



est d’abord de lire et écrire des textes en anglais scientifique avec facilité et pertinence. L’ouvrage est conçu pour que l’apprenant devienne un véritable utilisateur de l’anglais. La méthode repose sur l’analyse des fonctions et structures nécessaires : measurement, frequency, comparison, modification, ink words, time, cause and consequence, hypothesis, modality, purpose and process, impersonal forms, compound nouns and adjectives. Dans chaque unit, des tests d’auto-évaluation permettent au lecteur de construire son parcours de formation. On peut définir ses objectifs à l’aide de key points et du lexis, en puisant dans les examples in context, les checkpoints. MCSE est l’outil de base d’une méthode qui comprend un environnement numérique en développement permanent. C’est un “pap-ebook”, c’est-à-dire qu’au livre est associé un site web en accès libre qui permet d’effectuer des exercices directement corrélés au livre. D’autres outils sont également proposés pour mieux comprendre et mieux s’exprimer oralement. MCSE est la porte d’entrée de tout cet environnement.

Sommario/riassunto

By emphasizing the application of computer programming not only in success stories in the software industry but also in familiar scenarios in physical and biological science, engineering, and applied mathematics, Introduction to Programming in Java takes an interdisciplinary approach to teaching programming with the Java™ programming language. Interesting applications in these fields foster a foundation of computer science concepts and programming skills that students can use in later courses while demonstrating that computation is an integral part of the modern world.  Ten years in development, this book thoroughly covers the field and is ideal for traditional introductory programming courses. It can also be used as a supplement or a main text for courses that integrate programming with mathematics, science, or engineering.
