Course description and aims

This course provides an introduction of algorithms and data structures.
This course uses Python programming language to implement algorithms.
By combining lectures and exercises, the course enabls students to understand the fundamentals of programming to solve computational problem.

Student learning outcomes

At the conclusion of this course students will be able to:
1) learn how to use the Python language.
2) understand basic data structures and algorithms.
3) understand the difference in efficiency of algorithms.
4) implement computing algorithms to solve problems.

Keywords

Python, Programming, Algorithms

Competencies that will be developed

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

Class flow

The first two-thids of each class is lecture and the rest for exercises of programming.

Course schedule/Required learning

  Course schedule Required learning
Class 1 guidance review (numbers, strings, list, for, if) exercise Understand the standard usage of Python.
Class 2 computational complexity and graph exercise Understand the notation of computational complexity and graphs.
Class 3 depth-first search and breadth-first search exercise Understand and implement the depth-first search and breadth-first search
Class 4 greedy algorithms exercise Understand greedy algorithms and Kruskal algorithms.
Class 5 shortest path problem exercise Understand the shortest path problem and algorithms (Dijkstra algorithm, Bellman-Ford algorithm, and Warshall-Floyd algorithm)
Class 6 dynamic programming exercise Understand the technique of dynamic programming and solve problems using it.
Class 7 maximum flow problem exercise Understand the maximum flow problem and algorithms.

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.

Textbook(s)

None required.

Reference books, course materials, etc.

Guido van Rossum: Python Tutorial.
Mark Lutz: Learning Python

Assessment criteria and methods

Learning achievement is evaluated by exercises in every lecture.
