ITCS123 - Intermediate Programming Lab

Introduction

This repository contains my Java implementations of fundamental programming concepts covered in the Intermediate Programming class at De La Salle University Dasmarinas.

Course Description

This course includes review of control structures and data types with emphasis on structured data types. Application of object-oriented programming paradigm, focusing on the definition and use of classes along with the fundamentals of object-oriented design is also part of the discussion as well as basic analysis of algorithms, searching and sorting techniques.

Course Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, students are expected to:

• CLO1: Understand programming concepts
• CLO2: Describe structured data types
• CLO3: Examine program functionality
• CLO4: Evaluate searching and sorting algorithms
• CLO5: Develop a cleaner, more efficient, and more manageable Java programs
• CLO6: Demonstrate 21st century skills in all learning activities

Overview

The lab activity/repository covers the following core topics:

• Control Structures: Review of loops and conditionals
• Structured Data Types: Primitive and non-primitive types
• File Processing: Reading and writing files
• User-Defined Methods, & Classes: Creating reusable code blocks
• Recursive Methods: Implementing recursive solutions
• Searching Algorithms: Linear and binary search
• Sorting Algorithms: Bubble, selection, and insertion sort
• OOP Concepts: Classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism
