Synopsis:

Students will analyze problems, design a theoretical solution to a given problem and write the resulting algorithm using flowcharts, practice reading algorithms written using flowcharts, and use basic Boolean algebra to construct constraints in algorithms. Students will be introduced to the basics of the Python programming language - variable, branching, loops, they will learn to work with variables of basic data types (integer, floating point and string) and the list data structure in their programs.

Requirements:

one test or semester work, minimally 50% of points
