Objectives

SPECIFIC AIMS:
The aim of this course is to provide the students with a fundamental knowledge about Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and, in particular, allow them to develop their skills in computer programming.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:
The students should be able to:
-build MS-Excel spreadsheets models using formulas and VBA programming;
-use sequential and random access files in MS-Visual Basic;
-develop web pages with programming script languages (ASP, ASPX);
-create algorithms using primitive and complex data structures;
-build windows applications using object oriented programming in VB.

Program

Using MS-Excel spreadsheets and programming in VBA for Excel. Using sequential and random access files in Visual Basic (VB); Programming in web script languages (ASP, ASPX). Object oriented programming: classes, properties, methods and events; oop concepts – encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism. Programming in windows environment. Programming in VB using objects. Data structures: stacks; linked lists; queues; recursion; search and sort algorithms.
