7.1. General objective The “Imperative Programming” module introduces students to

programming using the Java language. It explains the concepts of
programming and gives them a practical introduction to the Java
landscape.

This module teaches students how to develop applications and

teaches the fundamental ideas behind the object-oriented
approach to programming. In the theory lectures, students are
familiarized with programming concepts and philosophy, then
implementing them using java programming language. This
module gives students a perfect base for creating computer
applications later in their next years of study, or then extending
their knowledge to develop web applications too.

From this module, students will learn how to break down a

problem and use basic concepts of programming like (arrays,
methods, class and objects …) in addition to fundamentals they
 learned in the previous semester to find a step-by-step solution
for the problem.

7.2. Specific objectives

After successful completion of the module, the student will be
able to:

• Analyze a specific problem.

• Break down the problem to smaller sub-problems
• Know about and the following essentials of programming:
o Methods
o Arrays and strings using primitive data arrays.
o Java classes (Swing, exception)
o Object-oriented programming
