Coding 1: Software development basics

level of course unit

Bachelor

Learning outcomes of course unit

Students acquire basic knowledge of the principles of procedural and object-oriented programming. They will be able to independently develop solutions for typical tasks and implement these in applications. Moreover, students will be able to use the basic elements of a modern programming language.

Students will develop familiarity with basic algorithms and data structures and can select these for specific problems or adapt them independently for specific problems.

The students can
- understand approaches to procedural and object-oriented programming
- analyze and understand programming examples
- understand language elements of modern programming languages
- select, configure, and use a suitable development environment
- differentiate between algorithms and data structures in terms of their complexity
- create their own efficient algorithms and data structures
