CS 304P: Computer Science I: Syllabus


CS 304P is an introduction to Computer Science and programming for students with no previous university CS coursework.

This section of CS 304P will use the programming language Scheme, a dialect of Lisp. The Scheme implementation we will use is called Gambit and runs on Macintosh computers. Toward the end of the semester, we will quickly learn Pascal for compatibility with later CS classes.

This course is intended to move faster than the regular CS 304P course and to emphasize CS concepts more than programming language syntax. We will do more programming and probably work harder than the regular CS 304P course, and we will hopefully learn more and have more fun.
