Course contents
The course will tackle advanced programming techniques. In particular, the course will be focused on Object-Oriented computing and Array-Oriented computing for scientific computing. Both paradigm will be investigated by using Python as the reference programming language. Accordingly, the students will be presented with the mail Python modules and libraries for scientific computing, such as, NumPy, Pandas, and SciPY. Finally, the Unified Modelling Language (UML) will be taught to provide the reference standard language to visualise the design of software application.
