dc.description.abstract | At the time of writing this book, I was fortunate to work with an excellent team at
Packt Publishing. Their contributions vastly improved the presentation of this book.
James Jones gave me a brilliant idea that led me to jump into the exciting project
of teaching object-oriented programming in three popular, yet heterogeneous,
programming languages. Divij Kotian helped me realize my vision for this book
and provided many sensible suggestions regarding the text, format, and flow of
the book, which is quite noteworthy. I would like to thank my technical reviewers
and proofreaders for their thorough reviews and insightful comments. I was able to
incorporate some of the knowledge and wisdom that they have gained in their many
years in the software development industry. This book was possible because of their
valuable feedback. | vi |
