Requirements
To ensure success in this course, students must demonstrate competency in the following areas:
- Proficiency in basic operating system operations, particularly file management.
- A solid understanding of structured programming fundamentals, including flow control, the use of variables and parameters, and function invocation.
- A minimum of three months of experience in developing applications within either a graphical or non-graphical environment, or equivalent foundational knowledge.
