After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

• formulate (certain) mathematical problems in algorithmic form,
• implement these elementary algorithms in C and C++,
• explain the difference between imperative and object-oriented programming,
• present and explain own solutions, and
• constructively discuss and analyze own solutions as well as those of other students.

Introduction into C and C++. Representation of integer and floating point numbers. Conditioning of given problems. Computational cost of algorithms. Variables and standard data types. Pointers. Functions and recursion. Call by value vs. call by reference. Loops, Objects and classes (resp. structures), Operator overloading, Inheritance and virtual. Templates. Programming exercises. 

Solving and implementing exercise problems, presentation and discussion of the own solutions in small exercise groups (with less than 18 participants), help and feedback available through the TISS forum and the weakly tutorial class.
