Premier quadrimestre, 26 heures de théorie.

Anglais

This course aims at learning the skills needed for efficiently programming a computer with Python. This requires students to understand and master the available data types, data structures, programming techniques, and standard algorithms.

Upon completion of this course, the student can:
• Write efficient code capable of solving a moderate programming problem
• Detect and correct different types of errors in a program
• Critically analyze existing computer code with respect to data types, data structures, programming techniques, and standard algorithms
• Use particular data types, data structures, programming techniques, and standard algorithms when executing a programming task
• Determine the complexity of an algorithm
• Apply sorting, binary tree, and hashing techniques when creating a program
• Understand the operations reseach application treated (i.e., shortest path, minimum spanning tree, traveling salesman, and knapsack algorithms) and adapt these to specific needs

The students occasionally have to make assignments. These assignments involve solving a particular programming problem that requires writing a correctly working Python program. The assignments are communicated via Toledo.

Type : Partial or continuous assessment with (final) exam during the examination period
Description of evaluation : Practical exam, Paper/Project
Type of questions : Open questions
Learning material : Course material, Calculator, Computer

• Features of the evaluation
o A final computer exam (open book)
o Evaluation of an assignment Python program prepared by the student

• Determination of final grades
o The grades are determined by the lecturer as communicated via Toledo and stated in the examination schedule. The result is calculated and communicated as a whole number on a scale of 20.
o The final computer exam accounts for 80 % of the final grade. The evaluation of the assignment Python program accounts for 20% of the final grade. Students not turning in this assignment program automatically receive NA (not taken) as final grade.
