Course information

Content and learning outcomes

Course contents *

Programming: Theory and practise in all aspects of elementary concurrent programming and program development. Go will be the language of instruction.

Intended learning outcomes *

After finishing the course the participants should be able to

  • design and implement simple concurrent programs
  • use programming to solve problems,
  • analyze, choose, select and implement basic algorithms and data structures,

in order to

  • efficiently use computers in their continuing education and working life,
  • find and use the correct techniques for a given problem,
  • take continuation courses in computer science and numerical analysis.

Literature and preparations

Specific prerequisites *

Completed course in programming corresponding to DD1310/DD1311/DD1312/DD1314/DD1315/DD1316/DD1318/DD1331/DD1337/DD100N/ID1018 and computer science corresponding to DD1320/DD1321/DD1325/DD1327/DD1338/DD2325/ID1020.

Active participation in a course offering where the final examination is not yet reported in LADOK is considered equivalent to completion of the course. This applies only to students who are first-time registered for the prerequisite course offering or have both that and the applied-for course offering in their individual study plan.

Recommended prerequisites

Basic computer science knowledge equivalent to DD1320, DD1321, DD1325, DD1327, DD1338, DD2325 or ID1020.

Programming knowledge equivalent to DD100N, DD1310, DD1312, DD1315, DD1318, DD1331 or DD1337.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

Grading scale *

P, F

Examination *

  • HEM3 - Assignment, 3.0 credits, Grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
