This two-part course introduces the basic mathematical and programming principles that underlie much of Computer Science. Understanding these principles is crucial to the process of creating efficient and well-structured solutions for computational problems. To get hands-on experience working with these concepts, we will use the Python programming language. The main focus of the class will be weekly mini-projects that build upon the mathematical and programming principles that are taught in the class. To keep the class fun and engaging, many of the projects will involve working with strategy-based games.

Programa - O que você aprenderá com este curso
Searching and Data Structures
This week, we will explain the importance of searching. We will also explore various data structures and learn about inheritance.
Recursion
This week, we will explain the importance of recursion.
Trees
This week, we will explain the importance of trees. We will also explore how to set up game trees so that we can efficiently search them.
Modeling, Assertions, and Invariants
This week, we will explain the importance of modeling. We will also explore how to use assertions and invariants to ensure that our models are always consistent and correct.

Principais avaliações do OS FUNDAMENTOS DA COMPUTAÇÃO (PARTE 2)
Tough! but very kind explanation and hard work! Thank you, teachers!
excellent course to improve logic skills of programming
Great course, I hope for more of this kind of courses. Invaluable skills gained from this course. High praise to all the professors. Thank You Very Much.
Phew, this course was much harder than the preceding courses. Some assignments took many hours of work over several days. But it's doable, and well worth it.
Sobre Programa de cursos integrados Fundamentos da computaçãoFundamentos da Computação
This Specialization covers much of the material that first-year Computer Science students take at Rice University, brought to you by the world-class Faculty who teach our master's and PhD programs. Students learn sophisticated programming skills in Python from the ground up and apply these skills in building more than 20 fun projects. The Specialization concludes with a Capstone exam that allows the students to demonstrate the range of knowledge that they have acquired in the Specialization.
