CSIS112: Advanced Programming

11/08/2019 to 04/16/2020 • Modified 08/08/2024

Course Description

Continuation of CSIS 111. Further development of discipline in program design, especially for larger programs. Introduction of pointers, simple data structures, recursion, internal sort/search methods. Programming assignments are required.

Rationale

This course provides a continuation to the language introduced in CSIS 111. It introduces additional language concepts, including pointers, classes, and inheritance. It also emphasizes software engineering concepts relevant to larger programs, such as code reuse, encapsulation, incremental development and testing, and provides an introduction to data structures. This course is essential to completing an understanding of the language that will be used in subsequent CSIS courses or C++ application development.
