Course Overview:

This course offers an introduction to computer programming, with a focus on Object-Oriented Concepts. It emphasizes mastering common algorithms and programming principles, using the standard library that accompanies Python Key topics include the fundamentals of programming (its nature and functionality), binary computation, and various problem-solving techniques. The course delves into Tuple, Array Based Lists, Sorted Lists, Pointers, Linked Lists, Inheritance, Virtual functions, Templates, and Exceptions, all essential for algorithm development. Additionally, the course covers procedural and data abstraction, program design, debugging, testing, and documentation. It thoroughly explores data types, control structures, functions, parameter passing, and the use of library functions. Students will also learn about arrays, inheritance, and the principles of object-oriented design. Practical skills are honed through laboratory exercises in Python.
