This module constitutes the second part of Introduction to Programming. It is a follow-on of the module COMP 1001J Introduction to Programming 1 and the material is a continuation of that covered in COMP 1001J. Some concepts that were already covered in the first module will be studied here in more detail. In addition, we will look at concepts such as functions, pointers, arrays, structures, unions and basic data structures. A strong emphasis is placed on the development of practical programming skills for solving common programming problems. The module is designed to give a sound understanding of programming techniques and to show how to get application programs from design phase to implementation.
