Course Description
Covers software design, implementation, and testing using Python. Introduces object-oriented design techniques. Includes problem solving and debugging skills. Emphasizes the development of secure, well-designed software projects that solve practical, real-world problems. Prerequisites: (CIS 122 or CS 161A or MUC 282) or instructor permission. Audit available.
Intended Outcomes for the course
Upon completion of the course students should be able to:
- Use an integrated development environment to write, run, and test simple object-oriented Python programs.
- Read and make elementary modifications to Python programs that solve real-world problems.
- Validate input in a Python program.
- Identify and fix defects and common security issues in code.
- Use a version control system to track source code in a project.
- Adequately document Python programs.
Course Activities and Design
This course is presented by means of lecture/discussion sessions, assignments, exams, and Python projects.
Outcome Assessment Strategies
Students will complete software projects comprised of an object-oriented design, implementation, and test plan.
- Designs will demonstrate the use of good object-oriented design principles.
- The implementation will demonstrate the use of a variety of basic control structures including selection, repetition, and recursion.
- Programs will use appropriate data structures, such as lists, sets, tuples, and dicts.
- Testing will include unit testing, integration, and system testing.
