Learning Objectives:
Computer programming skills are now becoming part of basic education as these skills
are increasingly of vital importance for future job and career prospects. The Python
programming language which is one of the most popular programming languages
worldwide. The course shows you how to use the free open-source Python to write basic
programs and high level applications using concepts such as Class, BIF of Python,
functions, variables, If Else statements, For loops, While loops, iterative and recursive
programs and algorithms such as the Insertion Sort algorithm. This course will be of great
interest to all learners who would like to gain a thorough knowledge and understanding of
the basic components of computer programming using the Python language – and might
be a gentle introduction to programming for those who think they might have a longer
term interest in the subject area.

Instructional Method and Pedagogy:
 At the start of course, the course delivery pattern, prerequisite of the subject will
be discussed.
 Lectures will be conducted with the aid of multi-media projector, black board,
OHP etc.
 Attendance is compulsory in lecture and laboratory which carries 10 marks in
overall evaluation.
 One internal exam will be conducted as a part of internal theory evaluation.
 Assignments based on the course content will be given to the students for each
unit and will be evaluated at regular interval evaluation.
 Surprise tests/Quizzes/Seminar/tutorial will be conducted having a share of five
marks in the overall internal evaluation.
 The course includes a laboratory, where students have an opportunity to build an
appreciation for the concepts being taught in lectures.
 Experiments shall be performed in the laboratory related to course contents.
