This course introduces important and practical programming tools and techniques that enable students to develop complex programs. Students write approximately thirty programs. Functions, top down program design, character variables and arrays, user-defined types, sorting and searching algorithms, and recursion are among the basic concepts covered. Typical programming assignments include: computing Fibonacci numbers using both non-recursive and recursive methods, checking if a word is a palindrome, using recursion to solve problems such as the "Tower of Hanoi," and the simulation of games such as Tic Tac Toe. At the course's end, students complete a final programming project and submit a comprehensive final exam. 
Typically 3-6 months
