PROGRAMMING for ENGINEERS

AIM

This course introduces the basics of C programming language first, and then presents the introductory topics that lead to the development of C++. The objectives of the course are introducing the concept of algorithm and discuss the steps to be followed starting with the problem definition and ending with a running program to achieve the target, identifying the importance of modular programming and functions, identify the importance of pointers and dynamic memory allocation and extending the concept to the arrays, the concepts of strings, introducing the basic Object-Oriented Concepts and the discussion of its advantages.
