10 Synopsis This course provides a general introduction to programming language. It is designed to give students the
ability to write simple console programs and to be able to understand such programs written by others. The
course covers problem solving skills, writing algorithms, basic programming syntax, control structures (loops,
if statements, switches), functions and input/output operations. The course forms part of a core courses for the
undergraduate program within the faculty, and provide programming foundation for other courses.
