Entry knowledge
Basic knowledge of algorithmization and programming, basic knowledge of C, C # or C ++ languages.
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
The evaluation of the course consists of points for the semestral project (presentation of a Java program) (70 %) and points for unassisted homework (30 %) . The condition for obtaining course credits is to obtain at least 50% points from the semestral project.
The attendance at lectures is recommended, the attendance at PC labs is mandatory.
Aims
The goal of the subject is to teach students the Java programming language and to the basics of object-oriented language to design simple applications. They will learn the basics of programming using primitive and reference data types, classes and objects, exceptions, threads, etc. They will learn about Java Virtual Machine or a graphical user interface suitable for Java.
Students will gain a knowledge of Java programming language, incl. object-oriented programming. They will learn to write simple Java applications and they will be able to create an application in graphical user interface.
