1.0 Course Description

 This course is an introduction to problem solving using computers. It emphasizes various


aspects of problem solving, mainly consisting of the problem domain, phases of problem
solving and basic techniques in designing a solution.

 The approach to problem solving is via top-down design, structured and modular
programming. The emphasis is on solving problems using computer rather than the
syntactical aspects of the chosen programming language

1. Identify the steps in problem solving.


2. State the problem according to a given requirement.
3. Write complete programs using structured approach
4. Write complete programs using modular approach.
5. Adopt a good algorithm-writing style.

3.0 Teaching Methodology
