CS 105 - Media-Propelled Computational Thinking

Units: 3

A media-propelled introduction to computation. Programming languages such as Alice, Java, Python, or Jython are studied and programming techniques are used to examine first the basic functions that draw objects, including lines and curves, and later to explore familiar physical, biological, or other scientific processes. Mathematical competence necessary for academic success will be enhanced. May not be taken for credit by students who have received credit for CS 200 -2. Enrollment Restrictions: For students matriculating prior to Fall 2018, enrollment is restricted to students who have completed the Entry-Level Mathematics (ELM) requirement. For students matriculating in Fall 2018 or later, enrollment is restricted to students in Mathematics/Quantitative Reasoning Placement Categories I and II, or who have completed MATH 101 or MATH 105 with a grade of C (2.0) or better.
