brief description of the course in Estonian
Programmeerimiskursus tulevastele arendajatele. Õpitakse selgeks Pythoni keelekonstruktsioonid, sh: muutujad, matemaatilised operatsioonid, loogilised avaldised, tingimuslause, sõned, tsüklid, nimistud, sõnastikud, moodulid, objektorienteerimise alused.
Õpitakse tarkvaratehnika aluseid, sh: versioonihaldus, ühiktestid, dokumenteerimine.
Rakendatakse õpitud programmeerimisoskusi reaalsete ülesannete lahendamisel. Saadakse praktilisi kogemusi erinevate algoritmide keerukusest.
