3 hours. Introduces students to both data structures and formalisms used in computer science, such as asymptotic behavior of algorithms. Learn about data structures and the formalisms used to both describe and evaluate those data structures simultaneously. By the end of the two-semester sequence of which this course is the first part, each student will have a solid foundation in conceptual and formal models, efficiency, and levels of abstraction as used in the field of computer science. Pre/Co-requisite(s): CSCE 1040 must have a grade of "C" or better. Or may be enrolled in the same semester. Typically Offered: Fall.
