Computer programming is a subject that is both difficult to teach and to comprehend. The reason is that programming learners are required to simultaneously contend with diverse issues.
In this book, an attempt is made to employ new concrete models, by the name of Memory/Mselle Transfer Language (MTL) invented by Prof. Leonard James Mselle (made of RAM diagrams) to enable the learner and the tutor to visualize most of intrinsic issues of programming. MTL visualization is designed to reduce ambiguity and hence facilitate comprehension. In addition, topics in this book are organized and presented to facilitate the learner to feel that he/she is “working the machine†and the machine has no influence on what goes wrong on the code.
All programs are dissected through RAM diagrams (MTL) to enable the learner to appreciate the power of close tracking the code.
The intention is for the learner to appreciate the usefullness of close tracking and use the tool as compas for navigation through codes.
