Aim

The aim of the course is to provide students with no previous experience in programming sufficient skills to use Python for the back-end development of digital services.

Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)

  • solve independently basic programming tasks using Python.
  • interpret and extend existing Python code.
  • solve independently advanced programming tasks by using existing Python libraries.
  • develop Python code that manipulates information stored in databases.
  • develop digital services that use Python as their back-end.

Content

  • Python language and development environments (IDEs).
  • Basic building blocks of programming (e.g., variables, conditional statements, loops, libraries, catching errors).
  • Data structures in Python (e.g., trees, dictionaries, queues, tuples).
  • Object oriented programming with Python (e.g., classes, objects, methods, inheritance, polymorphism, abstract classes).
  • Database manipulation using Python.
  • Back-end development for digital systems using Python.

Organisation

The course is given in the form of lectures, computer classes and programming assignments.

Literature

To be announced 2 weeks prior to the course start.

Examination including compulsory elements

The examination is composed of a written exam, a number of programming assignments and a final project. The grading is computed considering the exam, assignments and project. Grading: fail, 3, 4, 5.

The course examiner may assess individual students in other ways than what is stated above if there are special reasons for doing so, for example if a student has a decision from Chalmers on educational support due to disability.
