Introduction to computer, data manipulation, networking, operating systems, introduction of databases, concept of algorithms, C++ coding and introduction to MATLAB. Textbook Computer Science: An Overview, 10th Edition By J. Glenn Brookshear Invitation to Computer Science, Schneider, 2nd Ed. Beginning C++, the complete language, by Ivor Horton, Wrox Publishers. References C for Engineers & Scientists, An Interpretive Approach, by Harry Cheng How to Program in C++, Dietel and Dietel Course Objectives
This course is a mixture of diversified concepts is the first course in computer programming. Solution of elementary problems through computers using C++ as the programming tool will be emphasized. Visual C++ will be the environment used for this course, so that students have a foundation to build on later for object oriented and visual programming.The course objectives are as follows: 1. To introduce students to the basic concepts of Computer Science and Programming. 2. At the end of the term, the students are expected to be fairly good at basic concepts in Computer Science and proficient in computer programming using imperative paradigm. 3. The focus of the course will be on general programming principles/techniques, whereas C++ will be the language to implement these concepts. 4. Key procedural programming topics like variables, arrays, strings, functions, pointers / references will be covered in detail. 5. Demonstration of application of the First Law, Second Law, conservation of mass and properties of substances to practical engineering systems,
