Software Construction
This course delves into the fundamental elements of software construction, covering key aspects such as basic programming constructs, object-oriented programming principles, data structures and algorithms, as well as IO, exception handling, test-driven development, threads and concurrency and networking implementations in Java. While the role of a software engineer typically involves leveraging quality-tested artifacts and libraries to develop systems rather than starting from scratch, this course serves as a cornerstone for understanding how these crucial elements are implemented. By gaining insight into the inner workings of these components, we can optimize their utilization and make informed decisions when designing and building software systems.
