Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Overall objective: to learn "hands-on" how to implement optimization algorithms in C#.
The course covers following topics:
* Get familiar with Microsoft Visual Studio
* Basic concepts of the C# programming language (data types and operators, methods, classes, loops, input and output with files, arrays)
* Methodological knowledge for developing algorithms and their translation into C# (a step-by-step approach to select suitable data and program structures)
* Simple to slightly advanced programs, including the Nearest Neighbor Algorithm for the TSP

Assessment and permitted materials

* [80%] There will be a handwritten exam at the end of the semester.
* [20%] Midterm quiz

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

To obtain a positive grade on the course, more than 50% of the overall points have to be achieved.
The other grades are distributed as follows:
1: >87% to 100%
2: >75% to <87.5%
3: >63% to <75%
4: >50% to <62.5%

Examination topics

* Basic concepts of the C# programming language (data types and operators, methods, classes, loops, input and output with files, arrays)
* Implementation of programs that make use of the mentioned concepts of C#
