Purpose of class

Nowadays, programming is a basic skill that all students may desire to learn. In order to be able to concretely make useful applications of coding, more advanced programming paradigms must be acquired.

Course description

This course is thought as the continuation to the courses of the introduction level of programming. It will provide concepts such as Object Oriented Programming, exceptions and threads, which are useful to make real applications of programming. The course will be mostly practical, and will take place in computer rooms. The used language is Python.

Goals and objectives

Students can explain Python peculiarities
Students can model the reality into constructs
Students can code efficiently

Evaluation method and criteria

Evaluation method: exam (55%), group work (33%), active participation (12%)
Criteria: at least 60% of total evaluation is required to pass.
The main exam consists in a coding exercise and is individual. The score is integrated by a group work, which is presented in the last weeks.
Active participation in class, such as in Q＆A sessions, is also counted as a bonus.
