COURSE CONTENT
Student Learning Outcomes:
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
Untitled document
1. Design, implement, test, and debug a program that uses each of the following fundamental
programming constructs: basic computation, simple I/O, standard conditional and iterative structures, and the definition of functions.
2. Use pseudocode or a programming language to implement, test, and debug algorithms for
solving simple problems.
3. Summarize the evolution of programming languages illustrating how this history has led to the paradigms available today.
4. Demonstrate different forms of binding, visibility, scoping, and lifetime management
Objectives:
Untitled document
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
1. Choose appropriate conditional and iteration constructs for a given programming task.
2. Apply the techniques of structured (functional) decomposition to break a program into smaller
pieces.
3. Identify the necessary properties of good algorithms.
4. Create algorithms for solving simple problems.
5. Identify at least one distinguishing characteristic for each of the programming paradigms
covered in this unit.
6. Explain the value of declaration models, especially with respect to programming-in-the-large.
7. Identify and describe the properties of a variable such as its associated address, value, scope,
persistence, and size.
8. Describe strategies that are useful in debugging.
