CS 2110

CS 2110

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

Intermediate programming in a high-level language and introduction to computer science. Topics include object-oriented programming (classes, objects, subclasses, types), graphical user interfaces, algorithm analysis (asymptotic complexity, big "O" notation), recursion, testing, program correctness (loop invariants), searching/sorting, data structures (lists, trees, stacks, queues, heaps, search trees, hash tables, graphs), graph algorithms. Java is the principal programming language.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: CS 1110 or CS 1112 or equivalent course on programming in a procedural language.

Last 4 Terms Offered 2025FA, 2025SP, 2024FA, 2024SU

Outcomes

  • Be fluent in the use of recursion and object-oriented programming concepts (e.g. classes, objects, inheritance, and interfaces).
  • Be able to design and implement nontrivial Java programs (roughly 1000 lines of code), starting from an English language specification.
  • Understand graphical user interfaces (GUIs), as expressed in Java.
  • Understand asymptotic complexity of algorithms and be able to analyze programs to determine their running times.
  • Understand basic data structures taught in the course and be able to implement them and use them in programs.

    Engineers must register for ENGRD 2110. You may opt to enroll in a 1-credit Academic Excellence Workshop (AEW) to be taken in conjunction with this course. AEWs are weekly collaborative problem-solving workshops designed to enhance student understanding of course material. AEWs are facilitated by upper-level engineering students or CS majors. They are graded S/U based on attendance. In order to attend an AEW, you must enroll in an AEW section, listed under course number ENGRG 1011.
