Introduction to Programming Using Python plus Pearson MyLab Programming with Pearson eText [Global Edition]

Dr. Y.Daniel Liang earned his Ph.D. inComputer Science from the University of Oklahoma in 1991, and an MS and BS inComputer Science from Fudan University in Shanghai, China, in 1986 and 1983.Prior to joining Armstrong, he was an associate professor in computer scienceat Purdue University in Fort Wayne, where he twice received the Excellence inResearch award.  D r. Liangwas trained in theoretical computer science. He was active in graph algorithmsfrom 1990 to 1995 and published more than ten papers in several establishedjournals such as SIAM Journal on Computing, Discrete Applied Mathematics, ActaInformatics, and Information Processing Letters. Since 1996, he has devoted towriting texts and published more than thirty books with Prentice Hall. Hispopular computer science texts are widely adopted in the world.  Dr. Liangwas elected a Java Champion in 2005 by Sun Microsystems and has given lectureson Java internationally.
