Algoritmos e Programação

Base Knowledge

n. a.

Teaching Methodologies

In the theoretical lectures is made a presentation of theoretical concepts and their apllication,  well as the resolution of complementary exercises.

Laboratory classes with problem solving, which include discussion, analysis and development of the respective algorithm and its implementation in C language. All phases are monitored by the teacher.

 

Learning Results

The aim is encourage students to solve problems through the development of the respective algorithms.
It is intended to teach students how to develop a program in a structured way.

Provide students with the basics of the C language, which allow them the possibility to develop small programs.

Program

Algorithmic and modeling Issues

Main programming paradigms

Introduction to C language

Structure of a C program

-Declaration of variables and constants

-Reserved words

-Identifiers – rules and conventions

-Predefined data types

-Ranges of variation of variables

-Operations and defined functions

– Modifiers type

– Expressions

-Interaction with the user

-Control Structures

  –Sequence. 

  –Selection: if statement, else clause, if statement chaining, switch statement

  –Repeat: while statement, do-while statement, for statement, Chain of repeat statements, break and continue statements

-Pointers

  –Understanding addresses and pointers

  –Declaration of pointers
 
  –Operators * and &
 
  –Pointers and data types
 
  –Arithmetic of pointers
 
  –Pointers to Pointers
-Functions

 –Defining functions: header and body

 –Function Declaration

 — Side effects

 –Communication between functions: return, arguments and parameters, Passing parameters of pre-defined data types

Vectors

   –Declaration and Initialization

  –Multi-Dimensional Vectors

  –Manipulation of Vectors,

Strings

 — Declaration and Initialization
