Course objectives
The course is an introduction to programming and algorithmic style of thinking. At the end of the course students should be able to: understand and apply basic constructs of programming languages (e.g., conditions, loops, functions, basic data types) and know several basic algorithms.
Learning outcomes
After finishing this course, a student should be able to:
- use basic tools of structured imperative programming languages (variables, conditions, loops, functions, record data types);
- write and debug a simple Python program and adhere to recommended principles of programming style;
- use basic data types and structures (strings, lists, dictionaries);
- explain several classical algorithms.
Syllabus
  • Basic constructions of imperative programming languages: conditions, loops, data types, functions, input, output.
  • Number types, randomness, algorithms with numbers.
  • Data types, lists, dictionaries, objects.
  • Basic algorithms: prime numbers, sorting, searching. Complexity of algorithms (basics).
  • Turtle graphics, bitmap graphics, regular expressions, text processing.
