INF1010 – Object oriented programming
Course description
Schedule, syllabus and examination date
Course content
A continuation of the course INF1000 – Introduction to object-oriented programming (continued). A continued introduction to central concepts within object oriented programming: subclasses, abstract classes, interfaces and virtual methods. Cooperation between objects. Some important data structures such as lists and binary trees, with associated algorithms. Abstract data types and alternative implementations. Examples of the use of recursion. Simple examples of graphical user interfaces with event programming. A first introduction to parallel programming with shared data, synchronisation and threads. Extended use of the Java class library.
Learning outcome
After completing this course you will have a thorough knowledge about, and be able to use yourself when you program:
- subclasses, abstract classes, interfaces, virtual methods, abstract data types and alternative implementations
- cooperation between objects, including programming with server-clients and peer-to-peer programming.
- some important data structures such as one way and doubly linked lists and binary trees with associated algorithms
After completing this course you will have a good knowledge about, and be able to use yourself when you program, simpler versions of:
- recursion
- graphical user interfaces with event programming
- parallel programming, shared data, synchronization and threads
- the Java class library
