INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING
CSE4IP
2020
Credit points: 15
Subject outline
In this subject, you will be introduced to the steps involved in designing and creating software solutions for a range of practical problems. To enable you to design and implement solutions, you will be introduced to methods for analysis of requirements, development of the overall structure of a solution, and identification of its key parts, and on this basis, to incrementally build and test the solution. To develop your problem-solving skills, problems drawn from different domains, with increasing complexity, will be presented for your practice. You will be introduced to the concepts of class and object, to represent real-world objects to solve problems arising from an application domain. Python is used as the programming language in the subject. The strengths of Python, in particular its supports for quick testing of ideas, are exploited to facilitate the development of your problem-solving skills and effective software development practice.
