Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the basics of procedural programming and its real use in solving some programming tasks. Students are familiarized with the overall ecosystem of software development from its writing, through compilation, debugging, but also with how to properly document source codes. An integral part is understanding the principles of dynamic memory allocation and how data is represented in it.
