Fundamentals Of Programming With Algorithms And Logic –
it210
(3 credits)
This course provides students with a basic understanding of programming practices. Concepts covered include flowcharting, pseudocode methodologies, and an understanding of programming practices. Students will learn how these concepts, when properly applied, improve program design.
This undergraduate-level course is 9
weeks.
To enroll, speak with an Enrollment Advisor.

-
File and Database Processing
- Design a suitable program to solve given programming problems using the top-down modular approach and pseudocode.
- Differentiate between a flat file and a relational database.
- Determine when a sequential file is more useful than a database.
-
Verification and Validation
- Create test data to validate that algorithms handle user input data correctly.
