Features: "Visual Basic Program Design" is a core professional foundational course for the e-commerce major. Its purpose is to help students establish object-oriented visual programming concepts, cultivate their logical programming abilities, enhance their computer skills, and develop their thinking and problem-solving approaches. As a core course, it offers the following advantages: First, compared to languages like C and Java, it is relatively easier for students to learn, especially for those in vocational e-commerce programs. Second, in terms of current practical applications, Visual Basic has a broad market foundation and promising prospects. This textbook takes e-commerce application examples as its main thread to teach various aspects of Visual Basic. By introducing methods for developing Windows applications using Visual Basic, students will master fundamental object-oriented concepts such as objects, events, properties, and methods, enabling them to independently develop applications. The textbook properly balances theoretical knowledge and practical skills, making it highly practical and targeted. It is suitable not only as a teaching material for e-commerce and logistics majors in vocational and technical colleges but also for beginners and intermediate programming enthusiasts and technicians seeking self-study.
Content Summary: This textbook specifically introduces the integration of VB with e-commerce, covering VB data types, constants, variables, operators and expressions, common built-in functions, program control structures, arrays, and procedures. It briefly introduces the basics of object-oriented programming and provides a detailed explanation of the design methods for standard controls and menus. It also covers the programming methods for multi-document interfaces, toolbars, and status bars, as well as the application of databases and common ActiveX controls, along with the development of simple and practical e-commerce applications.
Key Features: As a textbook for vocational and technical college e-commerce students, it closely aligns with the goal of cultivating specialized talents capable of directly entering the e-commerce workforce. It emphasizes improving students' overall quality, focusing on ability-based training, and nurturing their operational and innovative skills, highlighting the characteristics of vocational education. The textbook selects content based on the principles of being advanced, concise, and practical. It maintains an appropriate level of difficulty, introduces vivid examples, and strives to make the material simple and easy to understand. It places importance on using diagrams, tables, examples, and typical cases to illustrate concepts, increasing the proportion of case studies. The language is clear and readable. Each chapter includes appropriate exercises to help students review and reinforce their knowledge. Most of the case program codes in this book can be found and downloaded from the supporting website: prss.ustc.edu.cn.
