Broad introduction to fundamental concepts in computer science. Investigate how computers store and transmit information, how to design and implement algorithms using a programming language, and how computing fits into larger social issues.
This course covers programming fundamentals using the Python language. Python is interpreted, interactive, and object-oriented. Recommended for general-purpose programming, system administration, or web programming. Topics include classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, design and implementation of abstract data types, dictionaries, lists, list comprehensions, files, modules, and mutable and immutable types.
The analysis and design of computer algorithms and their underlying data structures. Analysis of the timing and efficiency of algorithms. Study of lists, stacks, queues, trees, backtracking, searching, sorting and recursion. Introduction to graphs, hash tables, heaps, priority queues and direct access files. Further study of abstract data types and object-oriented programming.
This course covers programming fundamentals using the Java language, emphasizing an object-oriented approach to problem solving. Topics include classes, objects, references, dynamic memory allocation, inheritance, polymorphism, arrays, files, design and implementation of abstract data types, in numerical and non-numerical applications.
Introduction to principal software engineering processes and pitfalls. Focus on users, development methodologies, testing, and tools. Use of techniques including version control, functional specification, Agile and Test-Driven Development.
Introduction to using the Unix/Linux operating system. Unix/Linux file management and common text processing utilities including searching.
