Current Established Course Syllabus

General
Aim
  • The students shall learn to write small and medium-sized computer programs and attain basic knowledge of imperative programming, object-orientation and functional programming.
Contents
  • Basic programming constructs and construction of simple algorithms. Usage of common data types for collections: sequences, sets, maps. Basic object-orientation: object, class, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, immutable objects, mutable state. Basic functional programming: functions as values, anonymous functions, pattern matching, usage of higher-order functions. Scala is used as the main programming language.
Knowledge and Understanding
  • For a passing grade the doctoral student must
  • be able to explain fundamental concepts in imperative programming, object-orientation and functional programming
    be able to explain and give examples of use of simple algorithms
    * be able to describe and give examples of use of common data types for collections, such as sequences, sets and maps
Competences and Skills
  • For a passing grade the doctoral student must
  • be able to develop and implement algorithms to solve simple problems
    be able to implement classes from given requirements
    be able to structure programs, using classes and methods
    be able to use several different tools to write, test and debug programs
Judgement and Approach
  • For a passing grade the doctoral student must
  • be able to estimate the degree of difficulty of writing different programs
    be able to judge difficulties and advantages with mutable versus immutable data
