Course abstract
The aim of the study course is to familiarize students with the principles of algorithms development, their basic elements and methods of performance analysis. During practical lessons, students create data structures, study algorithms related to their use, as well as analyse the realizations of data structures and algorithms included in the .NET platform.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
As a result of the study course students:
•know the basic principles of programming (laboratory work, independent work);
•know how to code and debug programs, use good programming style, design algorithms and data structures (laboratory work, independent work); •are able to independently code and debug programs, compile and analyse ready-made algorithms and data structures (independent work).
Course Content(Calendar)
1. Data types, conversion of data types conversion - 4 hours
2. Classes, relationships between classes, inheritance - 4 hours
3. List types: ArrayList, Queue, Stack - 4 hours
4. Developing a singly linked list - 8 hours
5. Developing a doubly linked lists - 4 hours
6. Using a parameterized list List - 4 hours
7. Use of Hashtable and Dictionary collections. Work with keys and values - 4 hours
8. Elementary sorting algorithms - 4 hours
9. Recursive sorting algorithms - 4 hours
10. Development of the wooden structure - 8 hours
11. Development of the binary search tree structure - 4 hours
12. Development of a simple graph structure - 8 hours 13. Development of Dijkstra's algorithm for graph structure - 4 hours
Requirements for awarding credit points
Completed laboratory works and passed exam.
Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work
During the semester, the student must complete the laboratory works using the assignment descriptions using consultation with the head of the laboratory work and the lecturer. The student must independently develop an application on the chosen topic, study literature and Internet resources.
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes
The exam grade is formed as an accumulative assessment from two parts - assessment of laboratory work (40%), assessment of exam (60%).
