Aims

This course aims at learning the skills needed for efficiently programming a computer with Python. This requires students to understand and master the available data types, data structures, programming techniques, and standard algorithms.

Upon completion of this course, the student can:

• Write efficient code capable of solving a moderate programming problem
• Detect and correct different types of errors in a program
• Critically analyze existing computer code with respect to data types, data structures, programming techniques, and standard algorithms
• Use particular data types, data structures, programming techniques, and standard algorithms when executing a programming task
• Determine the complexity of an algorithm
• Apply sorting, binary tree, and hashing techniques when creating a program
• Understand the operations reseach application treated (i.e., shortest path, minimum spanning tree, traveling salesman, and knapsack algorithms) and adapt these to specific needs

Previous knowledge

It is advisable having successfully completed the bachelor course Foundations of Business Information Management.
