At the end of the course, students will have to develop a simple real programming project. To ensure maximum benefit from this course, 30% of the total marks will be awarded to class work in reading and writing. Reading: Extracts from literary and general essays will be used to develop understanding as well as an understanding of the nature of literary communication.
