Computational Aspects of Modelling

0.5 credits · Graduate

Computing concepts and programming skills fundamental to modelling and analysis form the core of this course (although no prior programming experience required). Students will learn about computer systems, data types, and programming fundamentals using a programming language suited to modelling and data science. Topics include computer organization, operating systems, basic programming concepts, object-oriented programming, common data structures and algorithms, and data access. Through hands-on programming exercises and assignments, students will develop practical coding abilities.
