
Introduce fundamentals of structured programming, with
emphasis on understanding functions, variables, and control
structures.
Introduce various tools used in programming, including editors,
compilers, linkers, and loaders.
Use the C++ language to implement the problem solving and
algorithm design skills.
Declare and use C++ class objects, their methods and attributes
Understand the concept of a pointer variable and a dynamic data
variable and be able to declare and use them in C++ programs.
Learn how to write and use recursive functions
Declare and manipulate different kinds of arrays

Handouts will be uploaded to the course web site.
Any announcement will be posted on the course web site. It is your responsibility to
check course website once in a while to keep yourself updated.
It is necessary to attend the class and lab regularly to build a comprehensive foundation
of the course. If you exceed the limit of absence (total of 15 hours) you will not be
allowed to enter the final exam. Second time late class coming; student will be
considered absent for 1 day.
Absence from lab sessions is considered as part of your overall absence.
No makeup quizzes for any reason. If you do not show up you will get a zero.
No makeup midterm and final exams. If you have an approved circumstance, you will be
allowed to enter a comprehensive exam at the end of this semester. The exam will
include the whole curriculum.
You should present your medical excuses, signed by the committee of excuses, no later
than a week from your absence. Otherwise, it will not be accepted.
Studying is from the book; correct answers are drawn from the text book.
TAs are responsible for lab marks. Lecturers will not change the mark given by a TA.

Problem Solving

Programming is a process of problem solving

Problem solving techniques
◦ Analyze the problem
◦ Outline the problem requirements
◦ Design steps (algorithm) to solve the problem

Algorithm:
◦ Step-by-step problem-solving process
◦ Solution achieved in finite amount of time
8
Representation of Algorithms

A single algorithm can be represented in many
ways:
◦
◦
◦
◦

Formulas: F = (9/5)C + 32
Words: Multiply the Celsius by 9/5 and add 32.
Flow Charts.
Pseudo-code.
In each case, the algorithm stays the same; the
implementation differs!
9
Sequential - The next sequential instruction is
executed(Default flow of execution)
 Conditional - An instruction is conditionally
executed based upon a conditional expression
being true.
 Iteration - A sequence of instructions are
repeatedly executed for a specified number of
iterations.

Exercises

3.
Write an algorithm that asks the user to enter an
integer number and prints the square of that
number.
Write the algorithm that calculates the area of a
circle that the user wants. (Area of a circle = 3.14 X
radius X radius).
Write the algorithm that asks the user to enter two
integer numbers and to choose to make either
addition or subtraction of those two numbers.
Finally, you have to print the result of the chosen
operation.

Cont.

Suppose that the cost of sending an
international fax is calculated as follows: Service
charges SR 3.00; SR 0.20 per page for the first 10
pages; and SR 0.10 for each additional page.
Design an algorithm that asks the user to enter
the number of pages to be faxed. The algorithm
then uses the number of pages to be faxed to
calculate the amount due.
