The objectives of this course are: 1. To expose students the basic concepts of computing system to solve a problem in engineering. 2. To provide programming skills based on modularity. 3. To apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering using C. 4. To develop skills in designing, testing and debugging programs. 5. To translate the solution into a programme, making use of concepts in programming to facilitate the translation process. . 6. To introduce the basic operations of the MATLAB language. 7. To write simple script files and function files in MATLAB. Upon completion of this course, students should be able to: 1. Identify a functional description of the problem including input and output specifications, and processing steps to obtain the output from the input. And develop input/output modules to read data and write data in a prescribed format. 2. Identify appropriate data types (including primitive data types, structures, pointers, and arrays) for storing the input and output values. 3. Develop and transform a problem into equivalent syntactically correct programming statements, and appropriate control structure (if/else, switch, for-loop, while-loop, and/or do while loop). 4. Write code that conforms to a programming style such as uses of user define functions, specified by the instructor, and apply basic testing methodologies and debugging tools to identify fault points and possible error conditions. 5. Use MATLAB in solving simple engineering problems. Skills and how they are developed and assessed: Skills Development Assessment Technical Lectures and Programming and Laboratory Written Assessment Analytical Project Report Lectures, laboratory, assignments, mini project and quizzes Introduction to computers as a problem-solving tool using C programming, basic data types, control structures; modular programming with functions, array and matrices, pointers and structures, engineering applications and intro.
