Programming I teaches problem solving, and the problem solving process, in the context of high level computer programming. This section of CS 1210 uses Python as a vehicle to introduce the elements of computer programming. Topics will include variables, selection statements, repetition statements, functions, flow of control, simple input/output and basic data structures. Throughout the course, good programming style will be emphasized. The course assumes no prior programming experience. However, students should be proficient working with files within their computing environment and basic high school mathematics concepts (arithmetic, order of operations, etc.)
