Course Overview
This is an introductory course for programming essential for Engineering/Scientist undergraduate study. The module would focus on the development of programming skills that can be directly applied to solve practical problems where the computer is part of the system or is used to model a physical or logical system. This module introduces programming as a tool for solving practical problems through C/C++ programming languages. Starting with the basic feature of the language, the course will develop introducing students to Object Oriented Programming and other advanced features of modern programming paradigm.
