Course description and aims

This course emphasizes the process of completing a program, as well as the analysis of the functions of a computer system and the step-by-step completion of the program, taking the appropriate steps. Students will be able to analyze the system, describe its properties, identify technical problems, and select appropriate implementation methods.

Student learning outcomes

This course aims to enable students to effectively use modern programming environments, such as automatic build systems, compilers, test tools, and software repositories; to understand the concept of system states and to acquire the ability to design and develop state-based programming; and to develop practical software on a certain scale.

Students who have learned the rudiments of functional programming will be introduced to the basics of state-based programming.

Keywords

Programming, Software development, Functional Programming, Scala

Competencies that will be developed

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

Class flow

Lectures and exercises will be coordinated with each other. In the exercises, students work on individual tasks and group work.

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

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend a certain length of time outside of class on preparation and review (including for assignments), as specified by the Tokyo Institute of Technology Rules on Undergraduate Learning (東京工業大学学修規程) and the Tokyo Institute of Technology Rules on Graduate Learning (東京工業大学大学院学修規程), for each class.
They should do so by referring to course material.

Textbook(s)

None

Reference books, course materials, etc.

Lecture slides, practice materials, and reference videos will be provided via Slack. Sample code and exercise programs will be provided via GitHub.

Assessment criteria and methods

Students should be able to develop using basic development tools, and should be able to analyze, design, and implement requirements for small-scale program development. Students will be evaluated on the achievement of quizzes in lectures (about 30%) and the achievement of programming tasks (about 70%).
