Learning outcomes

Objective of the course is to provide the basic knowledge to develop algorithms and use applications relevant to bioinformatics.

Program

Java implementation of dynamic data structures and relevant algorithms. Recursion. Interfaces and packages. The student will acquire the necessary knowledge through assisted software development and realizing specific projects. Basic and advanced functionalities of spreadsheets targeted towards data visualization and statistical analysis. Basic functionalities for numerical data processing and statistics (MATLAB, R). Basic aspects to bioinformatic scripting languages.

Examination Methods

The grade in Programming Lab II (PB) is worth 50% of the grade in the Algorithms class.

PB via Partial tests mode: it applies only to the exam sessions right at the end of the class. The exam consists of two partial tests. The final grade is given by 50% partial test 1 + 50% partial test 2.

PB via Single-test mode: the exam consists of a single test, whose difficulty is equivalent to that of the two partial tests, and whose grade determines alone the final grade for PB. This mode applies to all sessions.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
