Why is this course important?




programming is the core of everything to do with computers,
computing, networked systems, management information
systems, multimedia and so on (all computer-based things)
everything that runs on a computer is a program and
somebody has to write it. To understand how computers can
be used, how applications work, how systems are configured,
it is necessary for you to understand what programs are and
how they are constructed.
it is a necessary basis for understanding the rest of IT-related
courses that you will attend in future
after all, what makes you an IT student is that you should be
able to PROGRAM!!!
