    Subject Name: Introduction to Programming

    Overview:

    CS201, "Introduction to Programming," introduces the basics of computer programming. It provides students with the skills and techniques to solve problems using coding. Students will explore algorithm design, coding constructs, and foundational concepts in a programming language (C, C++, or Python).

    Course Objectives:

  • Understand fundamental programming concepts such as variables, data types, and operators.
  • Use control structures like loops and conditional statements.
  • Develop modular programs using functions.
  • Learn problem-solving techniques and algorithm design.
  • Debug and optimize code efficiently.
  • Topics Covered:

  • Introduction to Programming Concepts
  • Data Types, Variables, and Constants
  • Input and Output Operations
  • Conditional Statements (if-else, switch)
  • Loops (for, while, do-while)
  • Functions and Modular Programming
  • Arrays and Strings
  • Pointers and Memory Management
  • Basics of File Handling
  • Additional Learning Resources:

    To enhance understanding, students will have access to supplementary materials:
