The students will be able to: CO37: gain knowledge about the difference between the top-down and bottom-up approach and describe the object-oriented programming approach in connection with C++. CO38: choose appropriate data structures to represent data items in real world problems and analyze the time and space complexities of algorithms. CO39: design programs using a variety of data structures such as stacks and queues. CO40: to learn Curve fitting using Matlab & spline function and various interpolating and extrapolating methods. CO41: develop the knowledge of C++ language and MATLAB extension and will be able to apply these techniques to problem-solving in basic research field. |
Approach in teaching: Additional learning through online videos
