Learning outcomes
To pass, the student should be able to
- explain the concepts inheritance and polymorphism in an object-oriented language, and use these concepts in the programming process,
- use the programming language Java, both writing own code and explaining what task a given code performs;
- implement recursive solutions to different problems;
- describe the general principle for analysing the efficiency of an algorithm and perform such an analysis on simple algorithms,
- describe, implement and use the data structures array, linked list, hash table and binary tree,
- describe how error handling with exceptions is working and to use this in self-written programs
Content
Programming in Java: inheritance, polymorphism, exceptions. Object oriented analysis and design. Data structures: stacks, queues, lists, trees and hash tables.
Basic algorithms for storing, searching and sorting. Programming techniques, tools for software development.
Instruction
Lectures, problem classes/computer lab and compulsory assignments.
Assessment
Written examination at the end of the course and approved assignments.
