Course Objectives		The aim of the course is to aid students to develop basic computer programming skills and culture, where these skills are developed on professional basic applications such as azimuth and distance calculations. Furthermore, students could develop their skills and be able to solve more complex professional problems via using software libraries.
Course Description		This course introduces the fundamental concepts of software that are directly or indirectly used by the professionals. For achieving this goal, using the python programming language the basic concepts of programming such as input-output, loops, files, operators are used for programming introductory level surveying calculations such as azimuth, coordinate, evaluation of GPS data using libraries, fundamentals of graphic programming and matrix calculation.
Course Outcomes		Students who completes this course successfully 1. Recognizes the basic differences between various programming languages and compares them for applications at introductory level. 2. Creates small programs for basic mathematical calculations such as quadratic equations, finding roots, LCM (Least Common Multiple), GCD (greatest Common Divider) via using programming languages. 3. Develop programs for basic professional calculations such as azimuth, distance calculation. 4 Analyses professional problems such as electrometric tacheometry, traverse calculation, coordinate& height calculations, standard deviation, interpolation and generates the algorithm. 5 Develops the software program for the calculations that the algorithm is generated. 6 Creates programs for calculating matrix and linear equations via build-in libraries for matrix calculation in parallel to standard libraries of programming languages. 7 Prepares map drawings on browsers and computer screen via using build-in libraries for graphic programming. 8 Use both standard and professionally developed software libraries.
