Course Objectives: | This course aims to provide an overview of programming concepts, design and an introduction to coding using the C++ language. The course has a focus on creating working computer programs in C++. This course will address fundamental concepts of analysis, design, code development, and testing. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; I. Defining and analyzing the problem, finding a logical sequence of precise steps, developing algorithms. II. Developing computer programs that utilize various types of selection constructs in C++. III. Developing computer programs that employ repetition constructs in C++. IV. Developing computer programs that use simple data structures like arrays and multi-dimensional arrays in C++. V. Declaring and correctly calling functions in a C++ program. VI. Developing computer programs in C++ that correctly use pointers and references. |
Introduction to Programming (Programming languages, compilers) Problem Solving, Algorithm Design and Representation (Pseudocode, Flow-chart) Primitive Data Types, Constants, Variables, Identifiers, Named Constants, Arithmetic Operations Relational and Logical Operators, Conditional Statements ('If' Selection Structures, 'Switch Case' Blocks) Repetition Structures (Do/While Repetition Structure, the for repetition structure), break and continue statements Functions, Function Overloading Arrays, Multi-Dimensional Arrays, Seaching arrays Strings, String functions Pointers Pass By Reference with Pointers, Pass by Value The teaching methods of the course are as follows: - Lecture - Individual Study - Technology Supported Learning - Problem Solving - Application |
