Learning outcomes
The course aims to provide students with the basic skills for programming a computer to solve problems. At the end of the course the students: - will be able to use the main functionalities of the UNIX command line (e.g., filters, regular expressions) to manipulate data flows; - will know the elementary data structures, the basic programming constructs and the elementary abstraction techniques offered by the object-oriented programming paradigm; - will know and will be able to write programs that use the main libraries for the analysis of textual resources and for the manipulation of documents annotated with a markup language.
Program
The course will be given ONLINE only, in live streaming. Video-recordings of the lectures will be provided on the University e-Learning platform (Moodle)..
