Catalog Description
The
C# programming language and .NET environment will be introduced with an
emphasis on windows-based, event driven programming and the use of objects,
LINQ and XML. Topics may include UML, generic collections, database
connections, XML, inheritance and polymorphism, exception handling, event
driven programming, concurrent programming, windows forms, files and streams,
databases, and Web Services.
Learning Outcomes
1. Use the .NET IDE
environment.
2. Declare and use
various data types in the C# environment.
3. Properly use the
different looping structures available in C#.
4. Write an
amortization schedule or the future value of monthly investment program to
demonstrate the capabilities of looping.
5. Develop and use
classes, objects, methods and attributes.
6. Write programs involving single and multidimensional
arrays.
7. Write object
based programs showing proper use of inheritance and polymorphism.
8. Use GUIs
available in C#.
9. Write multi-form
programs.
10. Write multi-threaded programs.
11. Write programs using different types of
file structures available to C#.
12. Link C# to a database.
C Sharp programming
requires a great deal of time working with the forms and tools. Students need
to spend a minimum of 2 hours a day outside the classroom working in the lab.
If you do not have the time, please do not sign up for this course.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM
(Program inputs, outputs and summary of what the program does).
Each function should be distinctly
identified (block it off using asterisks).
A brief description of its purpose should be given in comments.
Comments should be inserted as
necessary throughout the program to convey the algorithm of the program. All programs must be tested thoroughly
before submission. You should include
program runs to indicate that every
option of the program has been tested.
Programs turned in without any
program run will receive a grade of zero.
WHAT TO TURN IN:
1. Pseudo code, structure chart,
flowchart, etc. as directed.
2. Program listing.
3. Program run.
Turn these in a folder.
GRADING:
Programs that do not run 0
points
Comments as explained above 15
points
program

points
program

points
Program correction and
re-submission: up to 50% of missed points.
Attendance in the lecture is mandatory. Students are responsible for all materials covered in class, the textbook, tutorials, and homework assignments. Students are expected to attend lectures, study the text, and contribute to discussions. You need to write your name on attendance sheets throughout the course, so please attend every lecture.
Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes and may be dropped from the course for excessive absences. UTRGV’s attendance policy excuses students from attending class if they are participating in officially sponsored university activities, such as athletics; for observance of religious holy days; or for military service. Students should contact the instructor in advance of the excused absence and arrange to make up missed work or examinations.
No make-up exams will be given except for university sanctioned excused absences. If you miss an exam (for a good reason), it is your responsibility to contact me before the exam, or soon after the exam as possible.
The University expects a student to maintain a high standard of individual honor in his/her scholastic work. Unless otherwise required, each student is expected to complete his or her assignment individually and independently. Although study together is encouraged, the work handed in for grading by each student is expected to be his or her own. Any form of academic dishonesty will be strictly forbidden and will be punished to the maximum extent. Copying an assignment from another student in this class or obtaining a solution from some other source will lead to an automatic failure for this course and to a disciplinary action. Allowing another student to copy one's work will be treated as an act of academic dishonesty, leading to the same penalty as copying.
If you have a documented disability (physical, psychological, learning, or other disability which affects your academic performance) and would like to receive academic accommodations, please inform your instructor and contact Student Accessibility Services to schedule an appointment to initiate services. It is recommended that you schedule an appointment with Student Accessibility Services before classes start. However, accommodations can be provided at any time. Brownsville Campus: Student Accessibility Services is located in Cortez Hall Room 129 and can be contacted by phone at (956) 882-7374 (Voice) or via email at accessibility@utrgv.edu. Edinburg Campus: Student Accessibility Services is located in 108 University Center and can be contacted by phone at (956) 665-7005 (Voice), (956) 665-3840 (Fax), or via email at accessibility@utrgv.edu.
Students are required to complete an ONLINE evaluation of this course, accessed through your UTRGV account (http://my.utrgv.edu); you will be contacted through email with further instructions. Online evaluations will be available Nov. 18 – Dec. 9, 2015. Students who complete their evaluations will have priority access to their grades.
