An Introduction to HTML and JavaScript

Dual-use technological writing at its best. This book presents HTML and JavaScript in a way that uniquely meets the needs of students in both engineering and the sciences. The author shows how to create simple client-side applications for scientific and engineering calculations.

Students and researchers will find this work of signal importance, presenting as it does HTML and JavaScript in a way that uniquely meets the needs of students in engineering and the sciences. The author shows how to create simple client-side applications for scientific and engineering calculations. Complete HTML/JavaScript examples with science/engineering applications are used throughout to guide the reader comprehensively through the subject. The book is specifically targeted at a technical audience, but not one that is necessarily familiar with a programming language, and gives the reader a sufficient understanding of HTML and JavaScript to write their online applications. This book emphasises basic programming principles in a modern Web-oriented environment, making it suitable for an introductory programming course for non-computer science majors. It is also ideal for self-study.

Addresses directly the needs of engineers and scientists by explaining just those components of HTML and JavaScript needed to write their own online applications

Features detailed code examples and output to guide the reader comprehensively
