FUNDIES 1

Welcome to the Fall 2024 version of CS2500 Fundamentals of Computer Science 1,
affectionately known as Fundies 1.

This course introduces the fundamental ideas of computing and the principles of
programming. The course will teach you a systematic approach to problem solving.
By the end of this course, given a computational problem, you will be able to:

 * design appropriate data representation(s) for relevant information;
 * indicate an appropriately general input(s)/output relationship given data
   representation(s);
 * develop a sufficient set of automated tests to verify a coded solution; and
 * produce a set of well-designed functions to solve the problem, making
   appropriate use of abstraction.

The course does not assume any prior programming experience. It is therefore
suitable for all students—majors and non-majors alike—who wish to explore the
intellectual ideas of the discipline. It does assume familiarity with (high
school) arithmetic and algebra, and it demands curiosity, practice, and
willingness to work with others.
