Course (BSc): Programming 2

Page content

Description

This course provides an introduction to object-oriented design in Java with an emphasis on practical techniques for developing complex software systems.


Learning outcomes

You will learn:

  • How to apply Responsibility-Driven Design to decompose a complex system into objects
  • How to use Design by Contract to develop robust software
  • How to make use of inheritance to design flexible and generic software systems
  • How to apply iterative and incremental development and continuous refactoring to arrive at a clean and understandable design
  • How to effectively test software
  • How to develop maintainable code by consistently applying simple design principles
  • How to apply design patterns as reusable solutions to commonly occurring design problems
  • How to develop software that communicates its own design
  • How to effectively use development tools like integrated development environments and version control systems
  • How to program declaratively using paradigms beyond (classical) object-orientation
