  1. Tips on Module Taking Khoo Siau Cheng

  2. Tips about • Taking first programming courses • Taking Mathematics courses

  3. First Programming Courses CS1101 CS1101S CS1102 CS1102S CS2103 CS2261

  4. First Programming Courses CS1101 CS1101S Small Programs CS1102 CS1102S Mid-size Programs Programming in the Large CS2103 CS2261

  5. First Programming Courses Lecture, Recitation, Discussion CS1101 CS1101S Lecture, Discussion CS1102 CS1102S CS2103 CS2261

  6. Interactive Learning • Three-hour Lectures • Small Class: max 150 students per class • CS1101X, CS1101Y, CS1101Z • CS1102X, CS1102Y, CS1102Z • One-hour Recitation • Smaller class: max 50 students per class • Two-hour Discussion • Very small class: max 13 students per class • Can be classroom-based or lab-based • Discussion leader shows you the way

  7. First Programming Courses CS1101 CS1101S Object-oriented CS1102 CS1102S Object-oriented Object-Oriented CS2103 CS2261

  8. First Programming Courses CS1101 CS1101S Functional CS1102 CS1102S Functional  Object-oriented Object-Orientated CS2103 CS2261

  9. CS1101S • A course modeled after the first programming course in MIT • Used widely in many US universities • Programming as conceptual modeling • Simple syntax (Scheme) allows more time on problem solving

  10. Who Should Read CS1101S? • Confident in your mathematics • Good grasp of concepts of functions and its compositions • Good grade in your A-level mathematics • Interested in exploring the field of computing early • If you are exempted from taking CS1101, you can still study CS1101S.

  11. Caveat for Taking CS1101S • You should not take CS1101S and CS1102 together. • If you fail your CS1101S, you will be asked to repeat the first programming course by taking CS1101 (not CS1101S again.)

  12. Questions about CS1101S? Lecturer: Dr. Terence Sim tsim@comp.nus.edu.sg S15, 04-06 Recitation Instructor: Mr Razvan Voicu razvan@comp.nus.edu.sg S15, 04-10

  13. First Programming Courses CS1101 CS1101S Java Scheme CS1102 CS1102S Java Scheme  Java CS2103 CS2261 But, where do I learn C or C++?

  14. Learning C or C++ • Learn it after completing CS1102/S • What the school offers: • CS2281 (Programming in UNIX) • Java  C++ Conversion • First three weeks of every semester • Saturdays (13, 20, 27 Aug), LT 34 • C++  Java Conversion • Same time, LT33 • Our belief: • You are able to learn a language like C, C++, C# yourselves after you have completed CS1102/S

  15. Tips about • Taking first programming courses • Taking Mathematics courses
