Structured Programming

Variables, control flow, functions, and I/O using a procedural language — building readable, maintainable programs from the ground up.

The ability to write a program that is easy to read six months later is not accidental. This course covers the fundamental constructs of structured programming — variables, types, conditionals, loops, and functions — with an emphasis on clarity and correctness.

Outcomes

  • Write programs using variables, conditionals, loops, and functions
  • Trace execution by hand to verify correctness before running the program
  • Debug logic and type errors using a systematic process
  • Evaluate and improve the readability of your own and others' code
