This course covers programming fundamentals using the Java language, emphasizing an object-oriented approach to problem solving. Topics include classes, objects, references, dynamic memory allocation, inheritance, polymorphism, arrays, files, design and implementation of abstract data types, in numerical and non-numerical applications.
Introduction to using the Unix/Linux operating system. Unix/Linux file management and common text processing utilities including searching.
Introduces advanced Java language features and packages that are essential for building Java Standard Edition applications. Topics include object-oriented design, updated Java features, file input and output, exception handling, collections, generics, graphical user interfaces (GUIs), functional programming, reflection, and multithreading. Helps prepare students for industry certification in Java programming.
This course covers programming fundamentals using the C++ language, using procedural and object-oriented approaches to problem solving. Topics include structured elements, classes, objects, references, dynamic memory allocation, inheritance, polymorphism, arrays, pointers, files, design and implementation of abstract data types, in numerical and non-numerical applications.
The analysis and design of computer algorithms and their underlying data structures. Analysis of the timing and efficiency of algorithms. Study of lists, stacks, queues, trees, backtracking, searching, sorting and recursion. Introduction to graphs, hash tables, heaps, priority queues and direct access files. Further study of abstract data types and object-oriented programming.
Large-scale individual projects in computer science to be defined in cooperation with an instructor/supervisor. The project must be in in an area not covered by other course offerings. The student is responsible for the project definition and completion under the guidance of an instructor/supervisor.
Basic computer organization including the von Neumann architecture, the instruction cycle, parts of a CPU (central processing unit), pipelining, memory hierarchy, and interrupt handling. Representation of numerical and non-numerical data. Translation to assembly code from high-level constructs such as if statements, loops, and function calls.
