Course Description

The central theme of the course is learning programming and the most important programming concepts, as well as the first basic concepts of computer science:

• Imperative programming (variables, control structures, functions and recursion, error handling, event handling)
• Simple data structures (array and dictionary, AVL tree, hash table)
• Object orientation (classes, visibility, interfaces, inheritance)

• Introduction to a number of computer science concepts (invariants, run-time analysis, sorting algorithms, representation of data in computers, Boolean algebra)

• The course uses the programming language TScript for an easy and motivating introduction to programming.
• Towards the end of the lecture there will be a switch to the programming language Python.
