課程概述

This is an introductory course to computer programming in Python. Introduction to programming basics (what it is and how it works), binary computation, problem-solving methods and algorithm development. Includes procedural and data abstractions, program design, debugging, testing, and documentation. Covers data types, control structures, functions, parameter passing, library functions, arrays, inheritance and object oriented design. 

課程目標
The objective of this course is that by the end of the semester, you will have
• understood why Python is a useful scripting language for developers;
• expressed how to design and program Python applications;
• identified how to use lists, tuples, and dictionaries in Python programs;
• described how to identify Python object types;
• demonstrated how to use indexing and slicing to access data in Python programs;
• defined the structure and components of a Python program;
• employed how to write loops and decision statements in Python;
• explained how to write functions and pass arguments in Python;
• illustrated how to build and package Python modules for reusability;
• learned how to read and write files in Python;
• elaborated how to design object-oriented programs with Python classes;
• performed how to use class inheritance in Python for reusability;

1. 
Homework 
20% 
Two questions (Easy and Hard) are in each homework assignment. You must submit your homework within two weeks through NTU COOL. The deadline is on Thursdays before midnight (11:59 pm). 50% off for the late submission in week three. 0 points for week four and up. 
2. 
Lab 
20% 
Laboratory will be based upon the lecture notes. Lab is an opportunity for students to practice skills, apply knowledge, review and build on past learning, and extend learning. Also lab is individualized and based on each student's progress towards established standards. The purpose of the assignment will determine whether or not a grade is given and will be clearly articulated to students. Through independent learning tasks, students assume more responsibility for their learning and are given opportunities to apply what they have learned to new situations or experiences. You will submit your report through NTU COOL by end of each lab session. 20% off for the late submission on the same day (till 11:59pm). 0 points from the next day. 
3. 
Quiz 
10% 
(5% each). The quizzes are scheduled on – Quiz I: March 16 in class. – Quiz II: May 04 in class. The quiz will be a 30-minute long in the beginning of the class. You will answer some short questions or complete part of the codes on NTU COOL. 
4. 
Midterms 
30% 
(15% each). The mid terms are scheduled on – Mid-term I: March 30 in class. – Mid-term II: May 11 in class. The mid-term will be a two-hour computer based exam, closed-book, and closed-notes. No electronics, including calculators, cell phones, or smart watches are allowed. Mid-terms will be used to access demonstration of the learning objectives. 
5. 
Final Project 
20% 
Form a team with AT MOST 4 members. Choose a topic that reflects your interests and what you have learned. You will submit your work and give a 15-minute team presentation on June 08 in the final week. For details, check Final Project Guidelines and Rubrics.
