Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
- Have acquired highly specialised and integrated knowledge and broad skills in the various disciplines of computer science, which come after those within the Bachelor's in computer science.
- Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
- Pursue further training and develop new skills independently.
Learning Outcomes of UE
At the end of this course, the students should be able to use the paradigm of functional programming, and understand its main characteristics. The students should also have gained a practical experience with the Scheme programming language.
Content of UE
Functional programming is a software programming paradigm based on the notion of mathematical function. In this course we will study:
- The history and state-a-of-the-art in functional programming.
- The formal foundations of functional programming (lambda calculus)
- The control structures and data structures used in functional programming.
- The syntax and semantic of the programming language Scheme.
Prior Experience
Basic knowledge about programming languages.
Practical experience with at least one programming language.
