Course detail
Basics of Programming
FSI-SZP Acad. year: 2022/2023 Winter semester
In this course we deal with an introduction to programming console applications for Windows in C#.
For this, the basic elements of the language are applied by top-down methodology and on the basis of simple considerations on invariants.
We develop applications in the VS 2019 environment using user-friendly code writing tools that increase productivity.

Learning outcomes of the course unit
Understanding the principles of algorithmic thinking and a structured approach to problem solving supported by simple actual technologies and the development of creativity.
Prerequisites
Computer literacy and user knowledge of Windows 11 (12) are expected.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The preferred style is learning by solve simple tasks.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Students will prove the acquired knowledge and skills by independent elaboration of a semester project.
A graded credit is awarded on the basis of a point evaluation of a semester project, taking into account the point evaluation of three ongoing projects assigned during the semester. The evaluation is fully in the competence of the teacher according to the valid guidelines of BUT.
Aims
Knowledge and skill to guide students' programming habits to productive writing of robust applications under Windows in C# using its basic elements and tools of the VS 2019 environment.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
Teaching takes place according to the weekly syllabi of the course syllabus. Attendance at lectures is expected, at seminars mandatory. Absence from the seminar can be replaced by a separate elaboration of the projects discussed at the given seminar or by elaboration of a substitute project with a possible presentation. The way of compensation missed seminar is fully in the competence of the teacher.
