A problem from a course called "Introduction to Gambling" is described. A flowchart and a computer program are included. (MNS)

A six-lesson unit on computing the palindromic sum of any given two-digit number is outlined. To write a brief, efficient computer program, students need to use several computer functions not typically applied in beginning programs. (MNS)

Parts one and two of a one-year computer-oriented calculus course (without analytic geometry) are presented. The ideas of calculus are introduced and motivated through computer (i.e., algorithmic) concepts. An introduction to computing via algorithms and a simple flow chart language allows the book to be self-contained, except that material on…

Exercises for high school students are presented which entail designing computer programs to enable the computer to identify a geometrical figure as a specific type of triangle or quadrilateral, given its 2-dimensional coordinates. Computer programming skills required are not sophisticated, but a solution requires careful analysis of necessary and…
