CS 170 - C and Data Structures

The course will introduce the C programming language including the language syntax, the programming environment, basic data types, complex data types (pointer, array, structures, bit fields, and unions), macros, i/o, and functions. Program development will emphasize modularization, data abstraction, and selection and analysis of algorithms. Other topics include recursion, files, linked lists, stacks, queues, and binary trees. Course projects are related to common engineering and computer science applications. Course will not count toward graduation in the computer science department.
