DESCRIPTION
The lectures cover various programming concepts from Object-oriented as well as Functional programming and how they occur in various programming languages. These topic include inheritance, subtyping, parametric polymorphism, side effects, higher-order functions and pattern matching. The lectures also cover how to produce clear, readable code.
There are several moderately large programming exercises, which give the students experience with designing and implementing moderately large programs from scratch. Moreover, they train the students in producing clear, readable code as well as provide experience with applying the programming concepts from the lecture.
Contact hours listed under a course description may vary due to the combination of lecture-based and independent work required for each course therefore, CEA's recommended credits are based on the ECTS credits assigned by VU Amsterdam. 1 ECTS equals 28 contact hours assigned by VU Amsterdam.
