Object Oriented Programming using C#

 This book will explain the Object Oriented approach to programming and through the use of small exercises in C#, for which feedback is provided, develop some practical skills as well.

At the end of the book one larger case study will be used to illustrate the application of the techniques. This will culminate in the development of a complete C# program which can be downloaded with this book.

Topics covered include: Abstraction, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Object Oriented Software Analysis and Design, The Unified Modelling Language (UML), Agile Programming and Test Driven Development

Object Oriented Programming with Java

This book takes a full-immersion approach to object-oriented programming. Proper object-oriented design practices are emphasized throughout the book. Students learn how to use the standard classes first, then learn to design their own classes.

It uses a gentler approach to teaching students how to design their own classes, separating the coverage into two chapters. GUI coverage is also located independently in the back of the book and can be covered if desired.

Data-Oriented Design

The thinking behind Data Oriented Design is very similar to how you think about relational databases. Optimizing a relational database can also involve using the cache more efficient, although in this case, the cache is not CPU cache put pages in memory. A good data base designer will also likely split out infrequently accessed data into a separate table rather than creating a table with huge number of columns were only a few of the columns are ever used.

This book is a practical guide for serious game developers. It is for game developers working to create triple A titles across multiple platforms, for independent developers trying to get the most out of their chosen target hardware, in fact for anyone who develops cutting edge software in restrictive hardware.

It is a book about how to write code. It is a book written to educate games developers in a coding paradigm that is future proof, unlike the style of coding we've become so accustomed to. It is a book rooted in C++, the language of choice by games developers of the last ten years, and provides practical advice on how to migrate without throwing away years of accumulated code and experience. This book is about how you can transform your development.

How to Design Classes

 The authors put classes and the design of classes into the center of their approach. In this volume, they show students how object-oriented programming languages such as C++, C#, and Java support this effort with syntactic constructs. They also refine the program design discipline.

Applying UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design

This book is a lucid and practical introduction to thinking and designing with objects — and creating systems that are well crafted, robust, and maintainable.

Developers and students will learn object-oriented analysis and design (OOA/D) through three iterations of two cohesive, start-to-finish case studies. These case studies incrementally introduce key skills, essential OO principles and patterns, UML notation, and best practices. You won’t just learn UML diagrams—you’ll learn how to apply UML in the context of OO software development.

Drawing on his unsurpassed experience as a mentor and consultant, Larman helps you understand evolutionary requirements and use cases, domain object modeling, responsibility-driven design, essential OO design, layered architectures, “Gang of Four” design patterns, GRASP, iterative methods, an agile approach to the Unified Process (UP), and much more. This edition’s extensive improvements include

    A stronger focus on helping you master OOA/D through case studies that demonstrate key OO principles and patterns, while also applying the UML
    New coverage of UML 2, Agile Modeling, Test-Driven Development, and refactoring
    Many new tips on combining iterative and evolutionary development with OOA/D
    Updates for easier study, including new learning aids and graphics
    New college educator teaching resources
    Guidance on applying the UP in a light, agile spirit, complementary with other iterative methods such as XP and Scrum
    Techniques for applying the UML to documenting architectures
    A new chapter on evolutionary requirements, and much more
