Most of the programs will support the concepts that were introduced, and will be mainly non-numeric in nature. This course is not intended to be simply a course in programming. It is intended for people who will major in Computer Sciences, Computer Engineering, or Mathematics.
Course work involves writing and running between five and eight computer programs.
