Course description and aims

This course focuses on advanced topics in programming such as pointers, complex data types, file operations and etc., after the fundamental knowledge on programming are acquired by the lecture course "Basic Computer Programming (ICT)". Also, this course provides fundamental ways of algorithmic thinking such as computational complexity analysis for evaluation of
programs.
The aim of this course is to acquire practical programming skills in order to conduct software work such as simulation, data analysis, and etc. in their thesis project in the future.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will be able to
- Understand topics for practical programming (including pointers, complex data types,
data structure, program structure design with appropriate function call, and file operations)
- Understand fundamental ways of algorithmic thinking
- Implement a small system in C language according efficiency.

Keywords

Pointers, Complex Data Types, Data Structure, Program Structure Design, File Operation

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Principally, the course consists of 90 minutes lecture and 180 minutes exercise per each week.
In exercise, students are asked to complete assignments for the topics taught in the previous lecture.

Assessment criteria and methods

1) Students will be assessed on their understanding of topics on programming at each class.
2) Students’ course scores are based on submitted reports for programming assignments at each class.
3) Students are required to attend all classes in principle.
4) The instructor may fail a student if he/she repeatedly does not come to class / comes to class late too often
or resubmits assignment reports late / resubmits assignment reports too often.
