This text enables readers to produce commercial-quality programs for practical application, and includes a section devoted to programming concepts for the novice as well as a section aimed at the more advanced user.

Ready-to-use building blocks for integrated circuit design. Why start coding from scratch when you can work from this library of pre-tested routines, created by an HDL expert? There are plenty of introductory texts to describe the basics of Verilog, but "Verilog Designer's Library" is the only book that offers real, reusable routines that you can put to work right away. "Verilog Designer's Library" organizes Verilog routines according to functionality, making it easy to locate the material you need. Each function is described by a behavioral model to use for simulation, followed by the RTL code you'll use to synthesize the gate-level implementation. Extensive test code is included for each function, to assist you with your own verification efforts. Coverage includes: Essential Verilog coding techniques Basic building blocks of successful routines State machines and memories Practical debugging guidelines Although "Verilog Designer's Library" assumes a basic familiarity with Verilog structure and syntax, it does not require a background in programming. Beginners can work through the book in sequence to develop their skills, while experienced Verilog users can go directly to the routines they need. Hardware designers, systems analysts, VARs, OEMs, software developers, and system integrators will find it an ideal sourcebook on all aspects of Verilog development.

Anyone developing software today is likely to be doing so in a Windows environment and is likely to be using Visual Basic as the development language. This Essential guide focuses on the basics of the language instead of burdening the eager user with small details contained in the manuals. Providing a clear and precise explanation of the most important features of VB5, the book allows readers to develop programs with the same heavyweight feel as the best programs from Microsoft and others.

Presents topic-by-topic coverage of Visual Basic programming. The sections of the book break the material into areas of focus, starting with development fundamentals. It then proceeds through object-oriented programming, programming with controls, and database tools and techniques.

This is a quick and easy, and even fun, tutorial for beginner VB.NET programmers, especially those learning from scratch or moving from VB6.

Mastering Visual Basic is an ideal introduction to the most popular Windows programming language. The book focuses on the essential skills needed to produce fully-functional applications using Microsoft Visual Basic. It is written in an easy to follow style, illustrated throughout with actual screen shots and contains many practical exercises and projects. New users need only a basic knowledge of the Windows environment to start creating exciting visual applications. The book is suitable for individual study or classroom use and will be of value to those new to programming and to existing programmers wishing to make the switch to Visual Basic.
