CPGM 110 - Introduction to Java Programming

4 Credit: (2 lecture, 2 lab, 0 clinical) 4 Contact Hours: [CMIS 101 ]


This course introduces the fundamental programming concepts and techniques in Java and is intended for all who plan to use computer programming in their studies and careers. Topics covered include control structures, arrays, functions, recursion, simple data structures, files, and structured program design. Elements of object-oriented design and programming are also introduced.
