Features: This textbook is a course for students majoring in non-computer science and taking up large-scale computer calculation and simulation. It consists of three knowledge blocks: Unix operating system, computer languages (C/C++/Java/Matlab), and database language SQL. All these contents are based on the Unix platform. Various computer languages in this book are integrated as a whole, so that several languages can be compressed into a single course. The guiding idea of this book lies in: "Any computer language consists of five elements: Variable, Operator, Function, Control, and Input/Output (or add Exception and GUI two items). The difference between languages appears only on their different formats." We take a unified method for handling the three knowledge blocks by combining Shell Script program with computer languages. So, these three parts are closely related. This book also includes a lot of source codes and other important computer languages (Python, TCL, and Maple) attached on a compact disk as the indispensable parts of it. Readers can really understand the contents of the book only if they learn these source codes in detail. This book will also be of interest to scientists and engineers who would like to learn the fundamentals of advanced computer programs.
