Course Outcomes:
On completion of this course, students are expected to be capable of solving problems using
mathematics and generalize those solutions into flowcharts to form programs. This course is
directed towards teaching the students, how to automate those solutions by implementing
them in C programming language. It is expected that due to the use of C programming
language, the students will learn the basics of how a high-level language works in tandem
with memory. The students should be able to identify coding inefficiencies and errors in C
code and turn those programs into efficient ones and remove programming bugs, primarily
with manual inspection and later with the use of debuggers. After completion of this course
students will be able to:
1. Understand and remember functions of the different parts of a computer.
2. Understand and remember how a high-level language (C programming language, in
this course) works, different stages a program goes through.
3. Understand and remember syntax and semantics of a high-level language (C
programming language, in this course).
4. Understand how code can be optimized in high-level languages.
5. Apply high-level language to automate the solution to a problem.
6. Apply high-level language to implement different solutions for the same problem and
analyze why one solution is better than the other.

the semester in presence of student supervisor. Evaluation by the committee will be based on regularity
of attendance and incremental progress of work done during the semester. The committee evaluation will
be given due consideration for the student's final grade assessment. The allotted marks for the interim
evaluation will be 20, while the rest of the marks will be on the report and on supervisor’s discretion.

Report must be prepared according to the template given for PROJECT I (CHEN 4195). The report in
