PRESENTATION AND CONTEXTUALIZATION

The objective of this guide is to guide the student in the study of the subject of Fundamentals.
of Programming. It is recommended to read the entire guide at the beginning of the semester
to have a complete idea of the syllabus, the practices, and the evaluation method, what
will allow the student to plan their work correctly.
As stated in the title of this subject, its objective is to address the fundamentals of
programming and introducing the concepts progressively and systematically for a
correct programming methodology. Access is considered very important in a way
natural and immediate to computer programming. This allows the student to verify in
the practice that the solved examples and the proposed exercises work correctly.
This subject is taught in the first semester of the first year, it represents a workload
6 credits instructor and is part of the subject of programming fundamentals, with a
basic training character for the degree qualifications in Computer Engineering and
Engineering of Information Technologies.
As the first subject of the fundamentals of programming course, it also prepares
for the contents offered in the rest of the subjects of this course.

REQUIREMENTS AND/OR RECOMMENDATIONS TO TAKE THE

SUBJECT

As it is an introductory subject, no prior requirements are needed.

beyond the general knowledge that a student must have at this level of
teaching and the specific knowledge of personal computer management at the level of
user.

COMPETENCIES ACQUIRED BY THE STUDENT

UNED 4 COURSE 2018/19

BASICS OF PROGRAMMING CODE 71901020

In relation to the competencies of the subject, the course 'Foundations of

"Programming" contributes to the development of the following general competencies and
specific, of the degree in which it is taught. These competencies are shown using the
the same references that have been used in the verification report of ANECA:
General competencies
Superior cognitive skills.
Expression and communication skills.
Specific competencies
•FB.05 - Knowledge of the structure, organization, functioning, and interconnection of the
computer systems, as well as the fundamentals of their programming, and their application
for solving problems specific to engineering.
BC.1 - Ability to design, develop, select, and evaluate applications and systems
IT professionals, ensuring their reliability, security, and quality, in accordance with ethical principles
and the current legislation and regulations.
•BTEisw.4 - Ability to identify and analyze problems and design, develop,
implement, verify and document software solutions based on knowledge
suitable for current theories, models, and techniques.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The fundamental outcome of learning this subject is the acquisition in a manner

progressive and systematic of a correct methodology for programming of
computers. The subjects that are learned are those typical of a first level course in
programming. Throughout the course, the material is introduced progressively.
structures and tools necessary at each point of the syllabus that are available in
any general-purpose programming language. The most important concepts
what is acquired are the following:
Basic concepts of programming and software engineering
Basic elements: values, types, constants, and variables.
Basic structures: sequence, selection, and iteration.
Structured programming.
Functions and procedures.
Route and search schemes.
•Definition of data types. Formations. Records.
Pointers and unbounded structures.
Abstract data types (ADT).
Modules
As a vehicle for teaching programming, the language C± is used (read C-)
more-less), which is constituted by a subset of the C and C++ languages. Therefore,
Any program written in the C± language can be edited, compiled, and executed in a

UNED 5 COURSE 2018/19

FUNDAMENTALS OF PROGRAMMING CODE 71901020

development environment for C/C++. It is very important to use a real language in order to
to program the computer in a natural and immediate way. This allows the student to verify
in practice, the proposed examples work, and thus also acquire as a result
from learning the knowledge of a commonly used language in software development.
The learning outcomes within the subject matter are as follows:
Specify simple problems.
Design programs that solve well-specified problems.
Select and perform the most appropriate coding for an algorithm.
Perform validation and debugging tests of a given program.
Methodologically address simple programming projects.
Master a programming language according to the paradigm of the subject matter.

METHODOLOGY

The methodology followed for the learning of this subject is typical of a

distance university, characterized by the joint use of printed media,
audiovisual materials and new technologies. The specific teaching materials, the
virtual learning communities, the in-person attendance of students through
the tutor professors of the Associated Centers and the use of various systems of
communication (telephone, videoconference, radio, television, email, etc.) are the
resources available at UNED for distance education, and all of them are used.
