Introduction to Programming Systems

• 39 hrs lectures
• 12 hrs seminar
• 22 hrs pc labs
• 5 hrs projects

• 54 pts final exam (written part)
• 12 pts mid-term test (written part)
• 10 pts numeric exercises
• 24 pts projects

Familiarize yourself with data organization when solving problems. Actively master basic algorithms and be able to apply them in practical problems. Familiarize yourself with the principles of program testing. Learn how to use program debugging tools. Learn to document, defend and present achieved results.

The student will learn how to write programs in high programming languages. The student will also acquire basic English terminology of programming,  The student will be acquainted with testing principles of programs. The student will learn how to document, to present, and to defend the reached results. The student will learn the computer-aided solving of simple problems by elaborating projects. The student will learn to create the program documentation and defend the results of project solving.

This course is placed in the winter term of the first year of the bachelor's study programme. Thus, we expect that students have the high school level knowledge of mathematics and using computers.
