This course aims to introduce the fundamentals of structured
programming using a high-level programming language. Topics include
concepts of structured programming, program design, development,
running, and testing, and debugging programs. Syntax and semantics of
the presently adopted language so that students will develop the ability
to program in the language. Basic elements of the language: variables,constants, and data types. Basic input/output functions. Conditional and
Iterative control structures. Functions (or methods) and parameterpassing. Recursive functions (or methods). References and dynamicvariables. Basic data structures: one and two-dimensional arrays, stringmanipulation, structures. At the end of this course, students are
expected to be able to analyze a computing problem, design, and
implement a solution using a high-level programming language.
Objectives
Nesting loop structures
To define and manipulate multiple-subscripted arrays.
