The new edition of this classic book has been thoroughly revamped, but remains faithful to the principles that have established it as a favourite amongst students, teachers and software professionals around the world. "Simplicity" - that has been the hallmark of this book in not only its previous nineteen English editions, but also in the Hindi, Gujarati, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and US editions. This book doesn't assume any programming background. It begins with the basics and steadily builds the pace so that the reader finds it easy to handle advanced topics towards the end of the book. Each chapter contains:

Lucid explanation of the concept.
Well thought-out, fully working programming examples.
End-of-chapter exercises that would help you practise the skills learned in the chapter.
Hand-crafted "KanNotes" at the end of each chapter that would help the reader remember and revise the concepts covered in the chapter.
