Aim:
This course offer a deeper study in programming, especially imperative and object-oriented programming in the programming language C++, and also knowledge about frequently used data structures and algorithms. Upon completion of this course the student should be able to:
- Design imperative and object-oriented programs and implement them in the programming language C++.
- utilize object-oriented program development methodology.
- Describe and use frequently used data structures and algorithms.
|
|
Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
A basic course in programming is required for this course, especially basic skills in problem solving and construction of small programs. Basic knowledge of computers and familiarity with unix based computer systems.
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
|
|
Supplementary courses:
This course is well suited for supplemantary courses where good knowledge in procedural and object-oriented programming, especially in C++, is required. Examples of such courses are courses covering compilers and interpreters, databases, concurrent programming, real-time programming, operating systems, design patterns, software engineering projects, and programming of parallel computers.
|
|
Organisation:
The course is arranged as a series of lectures, lessons and programming
exercises, and a small programming project. Self-study hours must be set aside for literature study, programming assignments, computer based exercises and project work.
|
|
Course contents:
Lectures, lessons and programming exercises deal with the programming language C++ and its environment, object-oriented analysis and design, programming in C++, data structures and algorithms.
- Imperative programming in C++ (variables, constants, declarations, expressions, statements, functions, fundamental data types and data structures).
- Classes (declaration, data members, member functions, nested types, access specification for class members, constructors, destructors, derived classes, polymorphism, dynamic type control and type conversion).
- Object-oriented program design (object-oriented analysis, design and coding).
- The C++ standard library (input and output, character and string handling, containers).
- Algorithm analysis, linear datastructures, binart trees, sorting, hashing, indexing and graphs.

The programming exercises give the student opportunity to practice and test her/his knowledge and skills in procedural and object-oriented programming.
The project work give the student opportunity to practice and test her/his knowledge and skills in object-oriented analysis, design and programming within a project group.
The computer based exercises tests the students knowledge about data structures and algorithms and is also an opportunity for learning.
The final grade (U,3,4,5) for this course is based on the laboratory work ("pass" or "pass with distinction") in combination with the reflection paper ("pass" only). The laboratory work form the base with "pass" translated to grade 3 and "pass with distinction" to grade 4. The reflection paper may raise the grade one step to either 4 or 5. |
