Foundations of Programming (MSc-IMS)

MSc-Uni Stuttgart Foundations of Programming using Java Course 2017 (Camilo Thorne)
This course is an MSc-level introductory course to programming and object-oriented design using the Java 8 programming language. Its primary audience are computational linguistics students. It presupposes no prior knowledge of programming. The course was given in a so-called "block course" format, i.e., as a week-long consisting of 5 day-long lectures, and 4 programming assignments. The course is based on the following materials: "Introduction to Programming with Java". 2008, Robert Sedgewick and KevinWayne. Pearson. Free course by K. Wayne and R. Sedgewick on Coursera regarding how to implement basic data structures and algorithms in Java. Lecture 1 - Programming principles. The slides are here. The exercise sheet is here. Lecture 2 - Variables, Java 8, Eclipse, basic program structure, types, memory representation. The slides are here. The exercise sheet is here. Lecture 3 - Conditions, loops, arrays. The slides are here. The exercise sheet is here. Lecture 4 - Algorithms, programs and functions; string manipulation. The slides are here. The exercise sheet is here. Lecture 5 - Basic data stuctures (lists and hash tables), and object-oriented programming. The slides are here.
