Why take CS1311

• Required, but why?• Pervasiveness of Computing Technology• Probably eventually work with computers• Will definitely work with computer people• Critical resources for Tech Experience

• See supplemental chapter in textbook.

Page 5: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Misconceptions

• All computer programming is done by computer scientists.

• I’m a(n) (engineering/architecture/music/management) major. Why would I ever use this stuff?

Page 6: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

University Vocabulary

• Lecture: Typically led by Professor or Lecturer. Sometimes big.

• Lab: Formerly held in equipped laboratory, involving immediate hands on doing. Now hands on projects done on your own.

• Recitation: Typically led by Teaching Assistant (TA). Smaller group. Questions and answers.

Is 1311 “The Shaft”

• The course requires a lot of work.• We bend over backwards to be fair.• For many students it is a rude awakening from

their carefree high school years.• Some students wait until it is too late to realize

that they are locked in a death spiral.• Resources are there to be used. Make use of

them!!!• There is absolutely nono mandate to run a “weed-

out” course.

CS 1311: Introduction to ComputingOverview

1. Basic algorithmic/procedural programming

2. Object oriented programming

3. Performance Issues

Page 39: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Part 1

• Introduction to Procedural or Imperative Programming

• Language: Pascal like Pseudocode

• Will cover essential programming concepts and introduce some basic data structures

Page 40: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

And now for something completely different...

• Part 2 has traditionally been an introduction to Object Oriented programming

• Up until now it has been taught using a modification of the basic pseudocode used in Part 1

• Starting now we will now be introducing Object Oriented Programming using Java

Page 41: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Part 3

• Performance Issues

Page 42: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Part 1: Programming

• We will be writing general algorithms

• There will not be a specific target machine

• Programming will be done in pseudocode

– Hand graded

– Simplified model

– Focus on algorithms and style

– Avoid syntactic details

Page 43: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Machine Model

• Mental model• Machine capabilities overview

• Important: – Focus on the right way to do things– Based on both theory and practice– Not based on what a given machine or

language will allow

Page 44: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Machine Model

CentralProcessing

Unit

• CPU controls the operation• Executes sequences of commands

• Typically called instructions• Capabilities

• Math• Compare numbers• Make simple decisions.

Machine Model

CentralProcessing

Unit

• Memory stores data used by programs• Data

• Numbers• Text• Logical (boolean i.e. TRUE/FALSE) • Other used in operations (e.g. addresses)

Memory

Basic Capabilities

• We will get into exact details of how we write algorithms in pseudocode next time.

• For now to get the basic idea we can imagine capabilites like– Moving data from the keyboard to memory– Moving data from the memory to the CPU– Performing math– Storing the result in memory– Writing the result on the display tube

Page 50: CS 1311 Fall 2000. Instructors Bill Leahy –bleahy@cc.gatech.edu –Office: CoC 121 –Office Hours: Tue & Thur 3 - 5 David Smith –dmsmith@cc.gatech.edu –Office:

Basic Capabilities// Our first algorithm (minus some details)

//

// Declare which variables we’ll need

Time, Speed, Distance isoftype Num

// Get a number from keyboard and store it.

read(Time)

// Get another from keyboard and store it.

read(Speed)

// Get the values from memory, multiply them

// together and then store in memory

Distance <- Time * Speed

// Get a number from memory and display it

print(Distance)

// The end!
