I am rather partial to books by Dyck, Lawson, and Smith. Thier first effort was "Introduction to Computing, Structured Problem Solving Using WATFIV-S", and they have followed it by others using Pascal and ???. As a first book, I think it is fantastic. They cover a wide range of topics, including area, root finding, statistics, linear equations, plotting, and so on, and have an *excellent* programming style. -- Lee Dickey, University of Waterloo.
