CS 1311 - Introduction to Computing with Python

Credits: 3 Class: 3 Lab: 0
Prerequisite(s): MATH 1300 or placement by exam.
Computational thinking involves transforming a real-world problem into a software-based approach for solving it. This course will engage students analytically in the creation of computer programs to solve a diverse set of real world problems related to kinematics, designing games, solving puzzles, searching, sorting, and basic data analysis. Using a problem solving approach, students will learn the basic process of designing algorithms as well as implementing them with a high level programming language.
