Course specific prerequisites
-Aim
The aim of the course is to provide students with no previous experience in programming sufficient skills to use the Python programming language to solve engineering problems.Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
Knowledge and understanding- understand how to break down problems and represent the solution steps as an algorithm
- understand reference literature for the Python programming language
- interpret and understand existing Python code
- interpret and understand error messages output by the software
- understand different data types and their use
- understand relationship among data
- independently, from a problem description, write Python code that solves the problem
- read and use reference literature while solving problems
- extend existing Python code
- solve syntactic and semantic mistakes or errors in existing Python code
- solve advanced programming tasks independently by using existing Python libraries
- develop Python code that manipulates persisted information
- propose relevant problem(s) that can be addressed using the Python language
- assess and prioritize requirements of the problem(s)
- discuss, plan, and execute the development of Python code
Content
- Basic building blocks of programming (e.g., data types, variables, conditional statements, loops, libraries, catching errors)
- Data structures in Python (e.g., dictionaries, queues, tuples)
- Object oriented programming with Python (e.g., classes, objects, methods, inheritance)
- Data visualization (e.g., plotting and animation)
- The test-driven and quality-focused software development process
Organisation
The course is given in the form of lectures, computer classes and programming assignments.Literature
To be announced 6 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 about disability study support.
