ITC538 Programming in Java 1 (8)
Abstract
This subject covers problem-solving, computer program design, implementation and evaluation in Java. Students learn to develop object-oriented applications consisting of a number of classes. The object-oriented approach is compared with other programming paradigms. The subject covers class design, file manipulation, Graphical User Interface components, and the use of inheritance and aggregation techniques. |

- Aggregation patterns implementation; the creation and management of collections of objects.
- Application development in Java using object-oriented techniques.
- Simple file manipulation operations using files.
- Simple java programming using Graphical User Interface (GUI)
- A comparison of object-oriented programming with other programming paradigms.
