DEPARTMENT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND DATA SCIENCE
PRE-REQUISITE FOR CCS358 PRINCIPLES OF PROGRAMMING
LANGUAGES
Before learning principles of programming languages each student should
have basic knowledge about the following:
Basic Computer Skills: Familiarity with using a computer, keyboard, and mouse is
essential. You should be comfortable navigating the file system, creating and
managing folders, and using common software applications.
Problem-Solving Aptitude: Computer programming involves breaking down
complex problems into smaller, manageable steps. Developing good problemsolving skills will greatly benefit your programming journey.
Mathematics: Basic mathematical concepts such as arithmetic, algebra, and logic are
helpful, especially when dealing with algorithms and data manipulation.
Logic and Critical Thinking: Understanding logical reasoning and critical thinking
will aid in writing efficient and effective code.
English Language Proficiency: Programming languages and documentation are
primarily written in English, so having a reasonable understanding of English is
beneficial.
Algorithmic Thinking: While not a strict prerequisite, familiarity with algorithms and
their analysis will give you a head start in understanding how to solve problems
efficiently.
Basic Command Line Skills: Knowing how to work with the command line or
terminal can be useful for certain programming tasks and software development.
Programming Mindset: Being open to continuous learning, exploring new concepts,
and embracing challenges is crucial for successful programming.
