Learning outcomes The course is designed to provide transition between structured programming and object
oriented programming. It develops a functional understanding of simple and complex data
structures and learns coding in a high level programming language using text and visual
environment.

Prerequisites Completed Computer Science course from 1st year, code 0002011300 and 0002011400
