Along with CSS 343, this fast-paced course is intended to get you up to speed so you can take Junior and Senior level CSS courses. It does this by integrating the fundamental mathematics of computing with detailed instruction in program design. By the end of this quarter, you will be familiar with much of the C++ language and the basics of object-oriented programming. You will understand how to analyze a problem and design a solution. You will know many basic data structures, algorithms, and the tradeoffs among memory, running time, and implementation time associated with them. Topics include: recursion, computational complexity and algorithm analysis, logic, mathematical proofs and induction, lists, stacks, queues, sorting and searching, data abstraction, and object-oriented methods.
