Course objectives
The course is an introduction to the programming, students will learn to design algorithms, will understand their logical structure, the syntax, and semantics of the programming language. Students will also learn to use the data types properly (the standard as well as user-defined data types), loops, procedures, and functions. The students will also learn the basic methods of algorithm optimization.
Learning outcomes
Students will learn to design algorithms, understand the logic structure of the algorithm, syntax, and semantics of the programming language. Students will also learn to use the data-types correctly (primitive, as well as user-defined), use the loops, procedures, and functions.
