Course Title: Introduction to Object Oriented Programming

(L-P-Tu): 3-1-0

Credit: 4

Practical/Theory: Combined

Course Objective: • To introduce the basic concepts of Java and its data types. • To gain knowledge about the control flow statement, iterations and classes in Java. • To become familiar with topics like inheritance and packages. • To use enumerations, arrays, multithreading, exceptions and byte streams with ease.

Learning Outcome: • Use an integrated development environment to write, compile, run, and test simple object-oriented Java programs. • Read and make elementary modifications to Java programs that solve real-world problems. • Validate input in a Java program. • Identify and fix defects and common security issues in code. • Document a Java program using Javadoc.
