Exploring Computer Science - 11
UCPC 0003 - 11
Course Description
This is an interactive seminar for those with no background in computer science. In the first class, we will discuss the genesis of computers and how they function, and decide whether we think that they are smart or stupid. After that we will alternate taking a problem and interactively solving it as a group at the whiteboard, and then moving into the lab where we each implement the solution with animation. Final problem involves analyzing patient data to help propose a diagnostic for diabetes.
