Structured computer programming using a modern high-level programming language. Includes console I/O, data types, variables, control structures, including iteration, arrays, function definitions and calls, parameter passing, functional decomposition, and an introduction to objects. Debugging techniques.
Note: This course is for students who intend to major in Computer Science, Mathematics, Computer Graphics and Imaging, or the sciences. Some previous computer programming experience is recommended. Not intended for students in Accounting or Computer Information Systems; the technical content is the same as CIS 166 but the emphasis is different.
PREREQ: MAT 104 or placement by the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science.
Expectations: Students are expected to learn both the material covered in class and the material in the textbook and other assigned reading. Completing homework is an essential part of the learning experience. Students should review topics from prior courses as needed using old notes and books.
Honor Code: You are encouraged to work together on the
overall design of the programs and homework. However, for specific
programs and homework assignments, all work must be your own. You
are responsible for knowing and following Lehman's
academic integrity code
(available from the Undergraduate Bulletin, Graduate Bulletin, or the Office of
Academic Standards and Evaluations).
All incidents of cheating will be reported to the Vice President of Student Affairs.
Email: I will be communicating with you on a regular basis throughout the semester using your email address on Blackboard. You must verify that blackboard has your Lehman College email address. You must check that email address on a regular basis. There will be no acceptable excuse for missing an email announcement.
Homework: Programming problems are due most weeks. Problems will be in your online textbook (see below). These programming problems reinforce concepts covered in class. To receive full credit for a program, it must be completed by the specified due date and the program must perform correctly. You will be allowed to submit your solution multiple times, the submission with the highest grade will count as your grade.
Exams: There will be two midterm exams and a final exam.
Grades: The grading for the course will be based on:
Since the final exam is comprehensive, if you do better on the final exam than the midterm exams, the final grade can replace those grades. This will be done automatically when your final grade is calculated. There are no make-up exams.
