Book Description
The Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) recently endorsed the use of computers in food science education. The minimum standards for degrees in food science, as suggested by IFT,"require the students to use computers in the solution of problems, the collection and analysis of data, the control processes, in addition to word processing."Because they are widely used in business, allow statistical and graphical of experimental data, and can mimic laboratory experimentation, spreadsheets provide an ideal tool for learning the important features of computers and programming. In addition, they are ideally suited for food science students, who usually do not have an extensive mathematical background.
Drawing from the many courses he has taught at UC Davis, Dr. Singh covers the general basics of spreadsheets using examples specific to food science. He includes more than 50 solved problems drawn from key areas of food science, namely food microbiology, food chemistry, sensory evaluation, statistical quality control, and food engineering. Each problem is presented with the required equations and detailed steps necessary for programming the spreadsheet. Helpful hints in using the spreadsheets are also provided throughout the text.

The Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) recently endorsed the use of computers in food science education. To address the lack of material guiding food science students in the use of computers for problem-solving, data collection and analysis, and process control. Dr Singh has created Computer Applications in Food Technology. This book, suitable as a supplement to courses in food sciene and food technology, covers the basics of spreadsheet use, by way of examples specific to food sciences.
Because they can mimic laboratory experimentation, spreadsheets enhance students' understanding of the physical concepts of food science. Spreadsheets also are ideally suited for the teaching of programming concepts such as logic, structure, reasoning, and analysis to food science students, sho usually do not have extensive mathematical backgrounds.
Dr. Singh includes problems drawn from key areas of food science, food microbiology, food chemistry, sensory evaluation, statistical quality control, and food engineering. Each problem is presented with the required equations and detailed steps necessary for programming the spreadsheet. Helpful hints in using the spreadsheets are also provided throughout the book.
