This technique is currently being applied to the problem of robot navigation and exploration to both determine the position of a robot in an unknown environment and at the same time to map this environment.
CS 110 is a one-credit course which covers the basic programming structures needed to prepare students for CS 310 and elementary engineering courses. No prior computer programming experience is required and only a basic knowledge of computers is assumed. The material covered enables students to write simple computer programs to solve engineering problems in elementary courses. All programming is done in FORTRAN. This course is intended for students who received little or no programming instruction in high school.
These sections are taught entirely in the FORTRAN programming language and are intended primarily for engineering students and non-computer science majors.
Construction of algorithms; problem solving; instruction and experience in the use of at least one procedure-oriented language (e.g., Pascal or Fortran); survey of other such languages, advanced programming techniques. Prereq: Advanced high school mathematical preparation or some college work in mathematics, statistics or logic; or consent of instructor. Open to Fr.
