Credit points: 15

Subject outline

In this subject, students are introduced to the steps involved in designing and creating a software solution to some practical problems. To enable students to design programs, the subject introduces methods to divide problem s into smaller parts to enable methodical analysis and the use of simple techniques such as flow charts and pseudocodes. V various environments, tools and techniques commonly used in software development and t wo programming languages (JAVA and C) will be introduced in the subject.

Intended Learning Outcomes

01. Critically analyse simple data processing problems to correctly identify the data and high-level processing involved and possible transformations.
02. Apply basic programming constructs of sequence, selection and iteration to develop effective pseudocodes that solve simple data processing problems.
03. Identify and use appropriate programming tools to develop effective computer programs from pseudocodes.
04. Specify and execute test plans for pseudocodes and programming codes.
05. Develop external documentation for the process of converting simple data processing problems into computer programs.
06. Effectively use standard Unix commands for file management, account management and program compilations.
