Description and Objectives

This module introduces the fundamental
concepts of problem solving by computing and programming using an imperative programming language. Outcomes: Know how to solve simple algorithmic problems. Know how to write good small programs. C is merely a tool. Of course we teach C but not C alone! Other language-independent and transferrable skills:
logical thinking, writing algorithms, testing and debugging your programs, etc.
