Prerequisites
There are no special prerequisities apart from the basic math skills (on the secondary-school level), and certain aptitude for abstract reasoning.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
On successful completion of the course, students will understand functional and logic programming paradigms. Programming languages enforcing declarative way of description of an algorithm bring on programming habits that the students will be able to use in practice later on when implementing large applications using even imperative languages.
Learning outcomes
After graduation students will: - understand fundaments of functional programming, - be able to decompose computational problems to individual functions and apply this ability for design and implementation of programs even in imperative programming languages, - have basic knowledge of Haskell programming language - be able to design and implement recursive functions, - be able to work with recursively defined data structures.

Teaching methods
The course is organized as a series of lectures and homeworks, plus a set of voluntary exercises, where the students get practice with solving various problems.
Assessment methods
The evaluation consists of a final written test that have two parts, obligatory and voluntary. To complete successfully with "E", the student have to pass the obligatory part of the final test and collect some minimal amount of points from the homeworks. The final grade can be further improved by additional points from the homeworks and selected exercises during practicals.
