Programing concepts and techniques include problem analysis, program design, coding, and testing, as well as language elements such as data types, variables and assignment statements, expressions, mixed-mode arithmetic, input/output operations, basic data structures and control structures, procedures and abstract data types. Basic database management concepts will also be introduced. Students will develop small applications programs. CPSC 110-3 is a first course in computer science and computer programing. CPSC 110-3 cannot be counted as a computer science course by computer science majors. Credit will not be awarded for both CPSC 110-3 & CPSC 100-4. Refer to major for required course. Please note: You must register separately in lecture, lab, and tutorial components.
