Intro to Program Design II

Catalog description

This course continues the study of program design started in CSAS 1114 . Building on the abstraction skills acquired in CSAS 1114 , the course focuses on new programming design techniques such as generative recursion, accumulator recursion, tail-recursion, and mutation, and includes distributed programming. The disciplined introduction to mutation prepares students to study modern object-oriented design and programming. The course includes a major team project such as the development of a video game.
