An introduction to computer science techniques with an emphasis on algorithm development and structured programming using the Python language. Topics include program development, data types, functions, conditional execution, recursion, and collections. Students should be aware of that this course is not an easy how-to-use Python course, but an “intensive” computer programming course involving scientific analysis and reasoning. Satisfies the mathematics and science (STEM) distribution requirement. Prerequisite(s): MTH1000 or placing out of MTH1000 on the math placement exam. Fulfills: STEM in LS Core
