Knowledge: Programming

Course Description:

The objective of this course is to equip students with fundamental programming

skills. Emphasis will be placed on thinking ‘algorithmically’, i.e. students will learn
general programming concepts and apply them to solve basic problems in
engineering and mathematics.
We will be using the C++(C plus plus) programming language.

Text Book: The C++ Programming Language By BRANE STROUSTRUP

Reference Book: 1. A Complete Guide to Programming in C++ by Ulla Kirch Prinz,
2. C++ Crash Course A Fast-Paced Introduction.

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs):

At the end of the course the students will be able to:
1. Describe the fundamental programming constructs and articulate how they are used to
develop a program with a desired runtime execution flow.
 2. Develop programs to implement computer-based solutions of well-specified problems

3. Distinguish the advantages and limitations resulting from the use of different language
constructs that embody similar programming concepts.
4. Articulate whether computer programs fit in the provision of computer-based solutions
to real-world problems.
