Introduction to Programming (CSTP 1105)
This is an introductory course on programming. Learners will develop problem-solving skills through the use of detailed algorithms and be introduced to structured and object oriented design techniques. The course content includes standard program syntax, variable types, operators, input/output statements, decision and loop control structures, methods, encapsulation, instantiating and using objects.
The course is taught in Python. Using basic Python graphics library, students learn to develop interesting interactive desktop application while developing their programming know-hows using python.
This is a hands-on course and student learn all complexities of programming through developing simple and fun (some simple games using Python graphics) applications.
