Course overview and aims
This course aims to equip the students with in-depth concepts and techniques of programming using a high-level object- oriented programming language and to develop practical skills in producing quality programs.
Course content
• Computers and programming Hardware/software hierarchy, the computer as a multi-level language machine. The software development process. Program development environments. • Programming techniques and the development of algorithms Algorithms, programming language, modular decomposition and procedural abstraction, automatic and dynamic variables, parameter-passing by reference and by value for atomic data, objects, and arrays, control structures, iteration, recursion, exception handling. • Data structures The concept of data types. Simple data types. Arrays. Strings. Files. Data abstraction: encapsulation, information hiding. Defining and using classes. The class library. Pointers. Dynamic data structures (eg. dynamic array, linked list). • Program development practice Professional programming styles. Program testing. Program documentation.
