COMP 152 - Practical Programming
This course provides an introduction to programming using commercially popular programming languages, writing the programs in imperative style. At the conclusion of the course a student should be able to write simple well-behaving programs blending iterative and recursive styles for various task scenarios encompassing common applications. These include interaction with the user and system to take input and produce output, and manipulate basic data structures such as strings and arrays, interact with operating system and files, etc.
An intermediate level of GNU/Linux operating system environment is strongly recommended for those who are interested in taking the course.
