• CPS 113: Python Programming Using Microcomputers

  3.00 Credits

  Harrisburg Area Community College-Harrisburg

  
  Covers the fundamentals of programming. This course introduces a beginner-level programming language to the new programmer, who defines and writes simple programs. Throughout the course, program design techniques are developed to enable the student to write more complex programs in an efficient manner. These programs incorporate numeric and string processing, file access, peripheral device control, subprograms, single dimension array processing, and basic object oriented programming. Prerequisite: MATH 033 & 044 (or MATH 051) or MATH 045 with grades of C or higher; placement through the College Testing and Placement Program. Prerequisite:    ( & ( MATH 033 ) & ( MATH 044 ) ) or MATH 045 or MATH 051 or MATH 101 or MATH 102 or MATH 119 or MATH 121 Corequisite:    MATH 101, MATH 102, MATH 119, MATH 121
