Preface
This is a document that is meant to be a supplement the text for the instructor. There is a
discussion of the ideas in each chapter, teaching suggestions, and some supplementary ideas.
There are solutions to many of the programming problems. Some problems have several different
solutions that correspond to different paths through the book. The test bank contains 25 to 50 test
questions with answers for each chapter. The questions are of both short answer (multiple choice,
true false, fill in the blank) type as well as read-the-code questions and short programming
problems. I urge that explanations to the short answer questions be required of the student.
With regard to the content of this manual, it should be noted that C++ leaves many options on how
to do any problem, and any book will necessarily choose a subset to present. Our author has made
such a set of choices. I have also made what I hope is a complementary set of choices for this
Instructor's resource Manual. I am striving to produce a complementary document to the text, a
document for the instructor, but I necessarily will do some things differently. Please do not hold
the student responsible for what I have put here. The reader of this document must note that it is
necessary to read the text, as that is what the student has to work with. In spite of our efforts at
consistency of content and style, there will be some variance between some of the presentation here
and the presentation in the text.
The code has been compiled and tested with g++ (gcc 4.8.4) and Visual Studio C++ .NET 2017.
Much of the code will work on Visual Studio C++ 6.0 updated to service pack 6 but a newer
compiler is recommended that is compliant with C++11. The text uses only mainstream features of
C++, consequently, most compilers will compile the code and produce output that does not differ
significantly from the results presented here. We have attempted to supply warnings where any of
these compilers gives trouble.

Chapter 1

Introduction to Computers and C++ Programming

This document is intended to be a resource guide for instructors using Savitch, Problem Solving with
C++. This guide follows the text chapter by chapter. Each chapter of this guide contains the
following sections:
1. Solutions to, and remarks on, selected Programming Projects
2. Outline of topics in the chapter
3. General remarks on the chapter

Solutions and remarks on selected Programming Projects


These programming exercises are intended to help familiarize the student with the programming
environment. Solutions are very system dependent. Consequently, only two solutions are provided
for the programming projects in this chapter.

Programming Project 3. Change calculator

Suggested course outlines:

There seem to be three major approaches to teaching C++ as the first course in programming. In the
one approach, classes and objects are done very early, frequently with a library of some sort that
must be used with the text. In another, all of the ANSI C subset of C++ is covered prior to even
mentioning classes or objects. This text takes a third road that is more middle of the road. Here,
enough of the control constructs and functions are covered prior to doing classes and objects.
However, reorderings of the chapters are possible that allow any of these approaches.
Here is a "classes early" course that follows the text closely. This outline assumes no background in
computing. Topics beyond Chapter 11 may be studied as time permits.

Reorderings:
The author suggests a reordering in the preface that allow almost all of ANSI C (with the tighter
C++ type-checking) to be covered before classes. Several variants on this reordering that allow
classes a bit earlier are presented in the text. The author describes interdependency of the chapters
in the preface of the text. Other reorderings are certainly possible.

Chapter 1:
The student should do all the programming assignments in this chapter. These teach the locally
available program development system and familiarize the student with some of the more
common compiler errors. Error messages are quite specific to the compiler being used. It is very
important that the student learn these ideas as early as possible.

Outline of topics in the chapter:


1.1 Computer Systems
1.2 Programming and Problem-Solving
1.3 Introduction to C++
1.4 Testing and Debugging

General remarks on the chapter

This chapter serves as an introduction to computers and the language of computers for those
students who have no computer experience. The terminology is very important. Many students
only want to learn how the programming language works, and seem to be unhappy when they
find that they are required to learn the terminology associated with the language. The students
who learn the terminology have less trouble by far with this course.
Students should be given an indication of the amount of work that must be done before coding
begins. There are instances where several man-years of work have gone into software before a
single line of code was written.
Emphasize the importance of the problem-solving phase of program design. This will save the
student work in the long run. It is further important to emphasize that the problem definition and
algorithm design phases may need correcting once the actual coding and testing is in process. This
is true even if the algorithm was carefully desktop tested. Emphasize that the program design
process is an 'iterative' process. You make a start, test, correct and repeat until you have a solution.
It is a fact that the sooner the coding is started (on most problems), the longer the problem will take
to finish. My students insist on learning this the hard way. The algorithm design can be given a
boost by dividing the problem definition into INPUT, PROCESS, OUTPUT phases. The algorithm
will be primarily concerned with PROCESS, but frequently just getting information into the
computer, or out of the computer in a desirable format is a significant part of the task, if not the
whole problem.
In the text, Section 1.4, subsection "Kinds of Program Errors", there is a discussion of compiler error
messages. The error message from g++ when the wrong operator << or >> is used for input or
output, is something like errormessage.cpp:8: no match for `_IO_ostream_withassign & >> int. The
point is that compiler error messages are not clear, and anything your can do to help students to
associate error messages with errors that cause them will help the student to gain some intuition in
debugging based on compiler messages.

Savitch Instructor’s Resource Guide
Problem Solving w/ C++, 10e Chapter 1

Encourage students to put only one statement per line. When errors are made, as they inevitably
are, the compiler is better able to tell us which is the offending statement. The cost is little for the
convenience gained in ability to find errors. The student should take compiler warnings to heart. If
the compiler warns about something, and the student is not absolutely certain what the message is
warning about, the student should treat the warning like the error that it probably is. The bottom
line is that all warnings (in the first course, at least) should be treated as errors. Compilers vary
with respect to what is reported as an error and what is reported with a warning. The GNU project
C++ compiler, g++ is more permissive by default. Encourage your students to compile using

g++ -W -Wall --pedantic file.cpp


This provides error messages that are close to the lint C-code checker.
GNU g++ 4.7 and Visual Studio 2013 very nearly meet the C++11 Standard. With g++ you may
need to add the –std=c++11 flag to compile with C++11.
The student should be encouraged to ask the compiler questions about the C++ language, to create
examples and to actually test the questions on the computer. The compiler is the final authority on
the version of the language that the compiler accepts, regardless of the ISO Standard. An example is
Practice Program 6, where the student is asked to type in a simple program, then test the effect of
deliberately introducing common errors.

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Footnote anchors are denoted by [number], and the footnotes have been placed
at the end of the book. Many of the Tables have associated footnotes, which
have been kept at the bottom of that table and labelled as a ‘note’ rather than a
footnote. These note anchors are denoted by {number}.
Some Tables were very wide; these have been split into two parts, with the first
column of the first part being repeated in the other part. On handheld devices
some Tables may need to be viewed in a small font to see all the columns.
In those Tables with ‘court number’ from 1 to 29 as a header, court number 11
is always missing; this is not an error, it is absent in the original text.
Some other minor changes to the text are noted at the end of the book.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE
The material in this volume was gathered by the Division of Health
Standards and Care of Studies in Methods of Americanization.
Americanization in this study has been considered as the union of
native and foreign born in all the most fundamental relationships
and activities of our national life. For Americanization is the uniting
of new with native-born Americans in fuller common understanding
and appreciation to secure by means of self-government the highest
welfare of all. Such Americanization should perpetuate no
unchangeable political, domestic, and economic regime delivered
once for all to the fathers, but a growing and broadening national
life, inclusive of the best wherever found. With all our rich heritages,
Americanism will develop best through a mutual giving and taking of
contributions from both newer and older Americans in the interest of
the commonweal. This study has followed such an understanding of
Americanization.
FOREWORD
This volume is the result of studies in methods of Americanization
prepared through funds furnished by the Carnegie Corporation of
New York. It arose out of the fact that constant applications were
being made to the Corporation for contributions to the work of
numerous agencies engaged in various forms of social activity
intended to extend among the people of the United States the
knowledge of their government and their obligations to it. The
trustees felt that a study which should set forth, not theories of
social betterment, but a description of the methods of the various
agencies engaged in such work, would be of distinct value to the
cause itself and to the public.
The outcome of the study is contained in eleven volumes on the
following subjects: Schooling of the Immigrant; The Press;
Adjustment of Homes and Family Life; Legal Protection and
Correction; Health Standards and Care; Naturalization and Political
Life; Industrial and Economic Amalgamation; Treatment of
Immigrant Heritages; Neighborhood Agencies and Organization;
Rural Developments; and Summary. The entire study has been
carried out under the general direction of Mr. Allen T. Burns. Each
volume appears in the name of the author who had immediate
charge of the particular field it is intended to cover.
Upon the invitation of the Carnegie Corporation a committee
consisting of the late Theodore Roosevelt, Prof. John Graham
Brooks, Dr. John M. Glenn, and Mr. John A. Voll has acted in an
advisory capacity to the director. An editorial committee consisting of
Dr. Talcott Williams, Dr. Raymond B. Fosdick, and Dr. Edwin F. Gay
has read and criticized the manuscripts. To both of these committees
the trustees of the Carnegie Corporation are much indebted.
The purpose of the report is to give as clear a notion as possible
of the methods of the agencies actually at work in this field and not
to propose theories for dealing with the complicated questions
involved.

INTRODUCTION
It would require a very long list of names to give specific mention of
all those who have rendered substantial aid in gathering the
information on which this volume is based. The Commissioner of
Naturalization, Mr. Richard K. Campbell; the former Director of
Citizenship, Mr. Raymond F. Crist, and the chief examiners under
their direction, have done all in their power to afford information and
other assistance. Several hundred judges of naturalization courts in
all parts of the country, took pains to answer our questionnaire and
personal letters on special questions. Students of immigration and
naturalization problems have been ungrudging in their co-operation.
The tedious and painstaking work of compiling the information
contained in more than 26,000 petitions for naturalization, analyzed
in the statistical chapters of this book, was done more especially
under the direction of Professor Raymond Moley, then at Western
Reserve University, Cleveland; Hornell Hart, of Cincinnati; Professor
S. C. Kohs, of Reed College, for Portland, Oregon; Professor T. T.
Waterman, of the University of the state of Washington, for Seattle,
and Professor L. H. Hawkins, of Clark University, for Worcester, Mass.
Aside from the service of these volunteer assistants, thanks are due
in more than perfunctory manner to the members of the staff of the
Americanization Study who devoted long hours to this exacting task.
Professor Moley compiled most of the material used in the chapter
on the legal aspects of citizenship, and afforded information of the
utmost value woven into other parts of this volume.
The thanks of the author are due in particular to his personal
associates in the work, Mr. Paul Lee Ellerbe, formerly Chief
Naturalization Examiner at Denver, and Miss Elizabeth Miner King,
then of the staff of the New York Evening Post, now Mrs. Harold
Phelps Stokes, of Washington, D. C.

AMERICANS BY CHOICE
AMERICANS BY CHOICE

OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL

From the point of view of citizenship there are two kinds of


Americans—those who are American involuntarily by birth, and those
who are American by choice.
This book devotes itself to those who have become Americans not
by birth, but of their own free will and accord, by that process of
voluntarily adopting a fatherland known as Naturalization. It
endeavors to tell generally what happens to them in that process,
and something of what they do and contribute to our political life
after they have been admitted to active membership in our body
politic.
The subject is one much talked about—especially since the
beginning of the World War—and little understood save by those
who administer, or who in some way profit by, the operation, the
shortcomings, and confusions of the existing law and the system
which has grown up under it. That system is handicapped and
beclouded by public indifference and by the survival of ancient
attitudes and limitations, and bedeviled by the theories and
prejudices of persons and interests who, innocently or willfully—
often with impeccable intentions—stand in the way of progress or
adhere for various reasons to ideas and methods long since
outgrown, or in the light of to-day actively mischievous.
THESE ARE OUR VOTERS!

It is a current fashion of unthinking persons, contemplating the


seething masses of immigrants congested in our cities and in certain
rural sections, beholding the polyglot store signs and newspapers,
sensing the existence of languages, manners, and customs
unfamiliar and perhaps grotesque and even outrageous to their own
habits and ideas of propriety, and reflecting vaguely upon the real
and supposed evils of our political methods and machinery, to
exclaim:
“And these are the people who corrupt our politics! These are the
voters who elect our presidents!”
Many who should know better indulge in such absurdities, and
even cite statistics to support them. A characteristic manner of
reasoning would read something like this:
“In 1910 there were 13,000,000 foreign-born persons in the
United States, and only a little more than 3,000,000 of them were
naturalized!”
Leaving the unreflecting hearer to forget that of the 13,000,000
only about half (6,646,817) were males of twenty-one years and
over; that more than half a million (570,772) had declared their
intention to become citizens; that there was no report as to the
citizenship of more than 775,000; so that the alien population of
voting age, and of the then voting sex, known to be unnaturalized,
was only about one-sixth of the total foreign born, or 2,266,535.
This was bad enough in all conscience, and the Woman-Suffrage
Amendment to the Constitution of the United States certainly has
aggravated it, since through it married immigrant women were made
possible voters through the naturalization of their husbands. But
nothing can be gained by exaggerating the facts, or constructing
mare’s nests by inferences from false assumptions. It is worth while
to examine the conditions, to observe the extent to which the
foreign born actually do participate in our political processes, and on
