After successful completion of the course, students are able to

• describe important concepts of a modern progamming language
• implement small programs
• apply practices and tools during the implementation of small programms
• understand selected algorithms

The following topics are covered in this course:

• Procedural programming concepts (variables, data types, operators, branches, loops, arrays, sub programs)
• Input/Output
• Recursion
• Basic algorithms (searching, sorting)
• Fundamental development methods (procedural abstraction, checking correctness, debugging) and programming tools inclusive a development environment.

Java is used as programming language.

• Lectures with discussions (recorded lectures in LectureTube)
• Exercise sheets as a preparation for labs
• Presentation und discussion of solved exercises during labs
• Programming tests during labs
• Online tests (TUWEL) for consolidation of basic principles
• Preparation at home
• Graded tests during labs
