CSC 504 - Computer Programming for Information Systems Credits: 4

This course will cover the following fundamental programming concepts: basic computation such as strings, lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries, files, functions, classes and objects. Topics also include object-oriented programming techniques; using advanced data types including multi-dimensional arrays, recursion, sorting and searching algorithms to handle big data. Students will get hand-on labs to understand the differences between different programming languages such as Python, Java, Visual Basic, and C.
