Anotation:

The course accompanies basic programming emphasizing the data representation in computer memory. Furthermore, the concepts of linked data structures and processing user inputs are developed. Students master the practical implementation of simple individual tasks. The course emphasizes acquiring programming habits for creating readable and reusable programs. At the same time, the effort is to build students an overview of the program operation, data model, memory access, and management. Therefore, the C programming language is used that provides a direct link between the program data structures and their representation in the computer memory. Students will get acquainted not only with program compilation and linking but also with debugging and profiling. Labs aim to acquire practical skills of implementing simple individual tasks, emphasizing functionality and accuracy of implementation. Student independence is developed by a set of homework with the possibility of optional and bonus assignments. The final task is an integration of a larger program using existing implementations. Evaluation of coding style motivated by writing legible, understandable, and maintainable codes is also a part of the selected tasks.

Study targets:

Gaining experience with programming and gaining programming habits of creating functional and properly implemented programs. Acquiring the writing of readable, understandable, easy-to-maintain, and reusable programs. Understanding foreign codes.

Exercises outline:

Practical exercises focus on acquiring and practicing programming habits to create readable and portable codes independently. Task assignments are submitted to the evaluation system and tested for robust handling of the input values. During the semester, students earn points for submitted assignments and tests. The scoring of the task consists of points for the correctness and efficiency of the code and points that take into account the quality of the source codes, their readability, and reusability.
