The C Programming unit aims to:<ul> <li>Provide a foundation in practical programming skills based on C</li> <li>Provide an introduction to problem solving, data structures and algorithms</li> <li>Provide an introduction to good program design using C</li></ul> On the successful completion of the course, students will be able to:ILO 1: Demonstrate the use of basic "C" programming elements such as declarations, selection (if) statements, loops, arrays, functions and pointers, in simple programming tasks.ILO 2: Explain the "C" development cycle: compiling, linking and executing.ILO 3: Apply common "C" library functions to simple programming problems.ILO 4: Work both individually and collaboratively to translate a given descriptive problem or algorithm into "C" program code using appropriate programming elements, techniques and data structures.ILO 5: Compare and assess different programming approaches in "C" in solving a given problem.ILO 6: Apply simple debugging techniques to programs with common errors.ILO 7: Evaluate and appraise different approaches to developing "C" programs, including the use of Integrated Development Environments.All above ILOs are developed and assessed. <div>  </div> 0 Other 20% 1 Written exam 80% One programming assignmnet:This makes up 10% of the overall unit.Online Blackboard Quiz:This is made up of 5 timed quizzes which makes up 2% each of the overall unit (10% in total).  .
