An introduction to the fundamental skills necessary to understanding Computer Science and programming and other topics in Computer Science. Students will learn to program, solve problems and think in ways they can connect with and apply to other disciplines, entering them into a conversation with a methodology and a set of ideas that profoundly affect our modern world. Unless the student has prior written approval of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, credit is not allowed for this course if the student already has credit for any other computer science course. This course does not count for CSC major credit, is not a substitute for CSC 1110 (Programming I), and is not recommended for students who already know computer programming.
