Registration for the exams in STiNE well within the registration periods is mandatory (also for students who repeat the exam!).

Content:

In the lecture "Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming" the basics of object-oriented programming are taught. The lecture is aimed at novice programmers. The basics of programming, such as loops, branches and other control structures as well as the specific features of object orientation are treated.

Learning objectives:

The aim of the course is providing an introduction to programming in order to enable students to work independently on programming tasks and to learn different techniques in the field of software development.

Didactic concept:

Apart from the theoretical introduction each topic is processed with the help of practical exercises. In numerous application examples, which are implemented using Python, programming techniques and especially object orientation as well as data processing and data analysis are shown in detail.

The curriculum includes the following subjects:

Introduction to Programming

  • variables, data types, (logical) operators etc.
  • loops, branches and methods
  • Graphical User Interfaces

Object Orientation

  • classes and objects
  • encapsulation, constructors and associations
  • multiple-/ inheritance

Application

  • Processing, analysis and presentation of data
  • Visualization with python
  • First algorithms using machine learning

Literature recommendations will be given during lectures.
