Winter Term, 2013 - (10 Sessions)
Tuesdays, 6-9 pm, January 8 through March 10
| Objectives: | This course emphasizes distributed programs and web applications - how they work and how to program them in Python. Students will explore the underlying principles and their expression in Python libraries. Students will learn contrasting approaches in creating applications: programming with the low-level libraries versus using highly integrated frameworks. All topics will be presented with a focus on solving real problems with simple, pragmatic code. |
|---|---|
| Prerequisites: | Students should have previously completed Programming in Python or have an equivalent level of experience. Contact the instructor prior to registering if not in the certificate program |
| Requirements: | This course does not provide a computer laboratory. Students will be required to have access to a computer in order to complete the coursework. As in-class laboratories are an important part of the experience, students should have a portable computer they can bring to each session. Networking in the classroom is provided via WiFi. Students should be able to configure their computers to connect to the network. |
| Assessment: | The course is graded Pass/Fail, based on satisfactory completion of required programming assignments and classroom presentations. Attendance is required; more than two unexcused absences will result in a Fail. |
| Accommodation: | The University of Washington is committed to providing access and reasonable accommodation in its services, programs, activities, education and employment for individuals with disabilities.
