PYTHON PROGRAMMING
3.0 Units
CS/IS 151 is a course in programming
computers in the Python language for
those who plan to be programmers or those
interested in graphics and Graphical User
Interface (GUI) programming. Python is
used in both business and game applications.
The course covers the basics of the Python
language and reviews computer science
concepts. Data types, decision structures,
loops, functions, object-oriented program-
ming, and some basic graphics and GUI
concepts will be presented. Lecture 3 hours.

ROBOT MOTION PLANNING
3.0 Units
CS/IS 157 provides an introduction to the art
and practice of programming mobile robots
using modern programming language(s)
context of robot programming to develop
skills in software development. Students
gain experience specifying open-loop and
feedback behaviors, handling RGB input
video, range images, tactile sensing, and
other robot sensors, and reasoning about the
spatial context of navigation and localiza-
tion tasks. The vast majority of the course
experience consists of implementation of and
experimentation with these skills through
hands-on labs. Lecture 2 hours/Laboratory

COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE AND
ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE
4.0 Units
CS/IS 165 introduces the student to computer
architecture as well as the world of assembly
language programming. The mapping of
statements and constructs in a high-level
language onto sequences of machine instruc-
tions is studied, as well as the internal repre- System (NFS), process control, backups,
sentation of simple data types and structures.
Numerical computation is examined, noting
the various data representation errors
and potential procedural errors. Lecture/
Demonstration 4 hours. Prerequisite: CS/IS

CS/IS 166 covers the extension of basic
addressing concepts to more advanced
address ability such as base register and
self-relative addressing, as well as compara-
tive computer architecture focusing on
such organizations as multiple register
processors and stack machines. Students
study the basics of virtual memory input-
output and an introduction to the concept
of micro programmable systems. Low-level
system translation processes associated
with assemblers, system functions such as
relocatable loading and memory manage-
ment, applications of data structures, and
hashing techniques are covered. Lecture 3
