Course Content
The course covers algorithm development, advanced programming structures, functions, arrays, lists, file operations, error handling, modular programming, and object-oriented programming concepts. Within the course, students develop simple software applications using a modern programming language for data processing, user interaction, basic database operations, and production-related processes. Sample applications are also carried out for collecting, processing, and reporting production data used in manufacturing execution systems.
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to enable students to learn advanced programming concepts, improve their algorithmic thinking skills, and develop software solutions for data processing, record keeping, reporting, and process monitoring problems encountered in production environments.
