ABOUT THE AUTHOR
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The author of this tutorial began programming in 1961 using
FORTRAN on an IBM 1620. Since then, most of his career has been
involved with designing digital logic for satellite application.
In 1983, being somewhat burned out with logic design, he began a
study of some of the more modern programming languages and has
since made a complete career shift to software development.
After learning Pascal, C was studied, followed by Modula-2 and
Ada, and more recently C++. Rather than simply learning the
syntax of each new language, modern methods of software
engineering were studied and applied to effectively utilize the
languages. He is currently employed by a large research and
development laboratory where he continues to study, teach, and
apply the newer programming languages.
