=== Overview ===

''Introduction to programming and computer science.  Introduction to C, problem solving, debugging, programming style, unit testing, teamwork.  Recursion, security, memory, pointers, and dynamic data structures.''

=== Objectives ===

After completing COMP1917, you should be able to:

  * Design solutions for simple problems.
  * Design solutions for larger problems using abstraction and interfaces.
  * Distinguish between well-written programs and poorly written programs.
  * Write programs using good programming style.
  * Understand and appropriately use abstraction.
  * Have a solid understanding of the use memory and pointers in C.
  * Create and use dynamic data structures such as linked lists.
  * Test and debug programs.
  * Work in a team to develop software.
