Aim:
The aim of the course is that the students should gain enough experience in using the computer labs to facilitate future course work, and also that the students should gain basic understanding of programming. After the course, the student will be able to:
/
- without problems use the department computer labs
- design and implement simple algorithms in a programming language
- methodically solve programming related problems using an interactive way of work with implementation, testing and troubleshooting
- construct computer programs using Pyhon

Organisation:
The course starts with a short section where basic Linux skills are trained. Theoretical background is introduced during a couple of lectures, but the main work is done during laboratory sessions. After this, the main part of the course starts, dealing with basic programming skills. A series of weekly seminars constitute the backbone of the course. The different seminar groups have different approaches to learning, and the students are free to choose group, based on learning style and previous experience. The main work is done during laboratory sessions. A few lectures are given as support.
