Programação Orientada a Objetos

Having attended the curricular unit Programming Fundamentals 

The following teaching methodologies are used in this curricular unit:
– Expository method: an explanatory method were theoretical foundations and concepts are presented by the teacher and discussed with the class, followed by demonstrative examples;
– Experimental method: an active method were the student develops the knowledge through the use of problem solving and project development.

It is expected that by the end of the course each student is entitled to:
– Know the basic concepts of Object Oriented Programming (OOP): objects, classes, polymorphism, inheritance;
– Model and manage static and dynamic data structures (tables, vectors, hash tables and java collections);
– Interact with persistent storage: files (binary, text and object files);
– Be able to structure, develop, run, and test programs using Java language.
