Debugging and Testing Course Objectives: Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Develop problem-solving skills, especially using the Python programming language, to solve real-world problems. (PG 1)
- Differentiate procedural versus object-oriented design and programming (OOP) concepts. (PG 2)
- Apply key concepts of decision statements, loops, dictionaries, sets, objects, functions, lists and tuples, strings, recursion, and modules in solving problems. (PG 2)
- Explain how a program works by going through its code line by line. (PG 4)
- Debug code by fixing syntax and correcting logical errors. (PG3)
- Document effectively within programming code to assist future debugging efforts and communicate with other programmers. (PG3, PG 4)
