Course objectives
The main aim of the course Introduction to Programming I is to introduce students to basic principles of computer problem-solving. Students obtain knowledge and skills that are necessary for designing an algorithm to solve a given problem, coding it in a programming language and debugging it. The subject Introduction to Programming I is based on the use of the Pascal programming language.
Syllabus
  • Basic concepts, units of information.
  • History of computers. Basic operational units of a computer and the principle of its operation.
  • Design of algorithms - phases of task processing on a computer. Algorithm - algorithm properties, possibilities of algorithm notation, design of simple algorithms.
  • Programming languages - compiler. Pascal programming language. Basic lexical units of Pascal. Program structure in Pascal.
  • Pascal commands - input and output commands, assignment, composed command, conditional command, loop commands.
  • Data types - ordinal types, type Boolean, integer, char, interval, real, enumerated types.
  • Case and for commands.
  • Structured data types - array, string, set.
  • Searching and sorting algorithms - linear and binary searching, sorting methods of SelectSort, BubbleSort and InsertSort.
  • Subprograms (procedures and functions). Formal and actual parameters, calling by value and by reference, global and local objects.
