IMPORTANT NOTE: Reading slides is not a substitute for computer programming practice, which is ESSENTIAL for success in this course.
Teaching method
All the theoretical knowledge is provided in the theoretical lectures and complemented with exercises suggested in the practical sessions. Thorough completion of these exercises may require training time out of class.
The first written test (of two) is designed to evaluate the knowledge of the rules of the programming language that supports class work and practical work.
The assignment is intended to put into practice the knowledge provided about the programming language and the paradigm of object-oriented programming; as well as to acquire the practical experience of programming that consolidates theoretical knowledge.
The second written test (of two) aims to evaluate the knowledge acquired in the discipline, focusing on the paradigm of object-oriented programming; also the programming language as a vehicle to materialize such knowledge.
