“As a student, this book has been an incredible resource while preparing for the AP Computer Science Principles exam. Kevin Hare explains complex concepts in a way that is clear and accessible to any student. I highly recommend this book for anyone preparing for AP Computer Science Principles.”
“As an educator, I appreciate how logical, straightforward, and accessible this resource is. My students in AP Computer Science find it to be a valuable supplement to the course, and even those not enrolled benefit from it as a guide to understanding core concepts. Most importantly, this book celebrates the creativity of computer science rather than emphasizing rigid formulas — inspiring learners of all ages.”
“I’ve explored countless digital textbooks on computer science over the years, and I was thrilled to discover Computer Science Principles on Amazon. It’s an outstanding resource for AP and non-AP students alike. The writing and visuals make complex concepts accessible for high school students, while still offering enough depth to challenge advanced learners. Highly recommended.”
