This book introduces fundamental programming and software engineering concepts through the use of a subset of the programming language Ada. Emphasis is placed on the design and development of algorithms, the concept of abstraction, and the software engineering concepts of modularity and information hiding. These features are not peculiar to Ada and will aid the reader throughout their programming life, no matter what language might be use
