Course Introduction
Introduction to Programming is designed to give students a foundational understanding

of the principles and practices involved in computer programming. The course covers

the basics of algorithmic thinking, problem-solving strategies, and the syntax of a

chosen programming language such as Python or Java. Students will learn how to write,

test, and debug simple programs, manipulate data types, control program flow with

loops and conditionals, and utilize functions for code modularity. By the end of the

course, students will have developed the skills necessary to approach computational

problems logically and to create basic software solutions.
