Introduction to Programming Using Processing, Third Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781365219290)

Written in an informal, conversational, and humorous style, the second edition of Introduction to Programming Using Processing makes learning programming a fun experience. It is almost certainly the only programming textbook in the world with references to Jurassic Park, NCIS, Chuck Norris, and Gamera! The freely-available Processing language is ideal for a first course in programming. The simple-to-access graphics and multimedia capabilities of the language let students develop eye-catching, animated programs, instead of traditional programs that print text to the console. User interaction features let students connect with their programs in a manner that they're used to. Processing runs on all the major computing platforms, and can create "clickable" applications, in addition to Web-ready applets. Plus, the language's Java heritage carries over into later programming courses with little fuss. Resources related to the text are available at http: //programminginprocessing.com
