     * Bertrand Meyer, //Touch of Class: Learning how to Program Well, with Objects and Contracts//, Springer Verlag, revised printing, 2013, book page [[http://touch.ethz.ch/|here]] (this is a complete course with slides, videos and exercises). The text //Touch of Class// is available with online access via Steacie Library. The book describes computational thinking with the Eiffel language. Use this text to learn about **design by contract**, polymorphism, static typing, dynamic binding, genericity, multiple inheritance, and lambda expressions (agents). These are all topics needed for this course.

     * //Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software//, 1994, by Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, John Vlissides
     * [[https://wiki.eecs.yorku.ca/project/eiffel/bon:|BON]] (Business Object Notation). The BON method for analysis and design of object-oriented software is a means of extending the higher-level concepts of the Eiffel programming language into the realm of analysis and design aided by a graphical notation akin to but different from UML. BON is described in depth in the book //Seamless Object-Oriented Software Architecture//, Prentice Hall 1994, by Kim Waldén and Jean-Marc Nerson.  The book is out of print but is available as a [[http://www.bon-method.com/book_print_a4.pdf|pdf]]. There is a template in Visio to do nice BON diagrams.
