Algorithms And Logic For Computer Programming –
prg211
(3 credits)
This course provides students with a basic understanding of programming development practices. Concepts covered include the application of algorithms and logic to the design and development of procedural and object oriented computer programs to address the problem solving requirements associated with business information systems. This course will cover procedural programming concepts including data types, controls structures, functional decomposition, arrays, and files, classes and objects.
This undergraduate-level course is 5
weeks.
To enroll, speak with an Enrollment Advisor.
