**Curriculum Module**

_Created with R2024a. Compatible with R2024a and later releases._

# Information

This curriculum module contains interactive [MATLAB® live scripts](https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab/live-editor.html) that  teach fundamental concepts and basic terminology related to programming computers. This includes discussion of inputs and outputs, numbers, strings, arrays, branches and loops. This content is broken into six instructional live scripts and one project where live script instructions are paired with a plain code practice script. Solutions are available to instuctors upon request.

## Background

You can use these live scripts as demonstrations in lectures, class activities, or interactive assignments outside class. Fundamentals of Programming includes an introduction to programming which includes discussion of errors, documentation, and other commonly encountered challenges for beginners. Data introduces double and string data types. Arrays introduces 1, 2, and 3\-D arrays, as well as a brief overview of matrix operations. Applications include both text and image data. Branches introduces the concept of conditional branching in the form of if/else branches and switch statements. Loops introduces the concept of conditional looping in the form of for loops and while loops. Chaos Game Project provides a scaffolded approach to implementing the chaos game by combining skills from each of the other scripts. The final script, Algorithms, introduces algorithms, pseudocode, and testing. Additional files include the navigation file Main Menu and the Collected Pro Tips.

The instructions inside the live scripts will guide you through the exercises and activities. Get started with each live script by running it one section at a time. To stop running the script or a section midway (for example, when an animation is in progress), use the <img src="Images/EndIcon.png" width="19" alt="EndIcon.png"> Stop button in the **RUN** section of the **Live Editor** tab in the MATLAB Toolstrip.

## Prerequisites

This module assumes familiarity with basic mathematics at a high school level. One exercise in Data.mlx requires the use of the quadratic formula, for instance. Understanding the chaos game requires locating points on a Cartesian coordinate system and understanding of either vectors or midpoints. Trigonometric functions are used as example functions. With respect to programming knowledge, this module is intended for absolute beginners who have used simple calculators in the past.

## Getting Started
### Accessing the Module
### **On MATLAB Online:**

Use the [<img src="Images/OpenInMO.png" width="136" alt="OpenInMO.png">](https://matlab.mathworks.com/open/github/v1?repo=MathWorks-Teaching-Resources/Fundamentals-of-Programming&project=FundamentalsofProgramming.prj) link to download the module. You will be prompted to log in or create a MathWorks account. The project will be loaded, and you will see an app with several navigation options to get you started.

### **On Desktop:**

Download or clone this repository. Open MATLAB, navigate to the folder containing these scripts and double\-click on [FundamentalsofProgramming.prj](https://matlab.mathworks.com/open/github/v1?repo=MathWorks-Teaching-Resources/Fundamentals-of-Programming&project=FundamentalsofProgramming.prj&file=README.mlx). It will add the appropriate files to your MATLAB path and open an app that asks you where you would like to start.

Ensure you have all the required products (listed below) installed. If you need to include a product, add it using the Add\-On Explorer. To install an add\-on, go to the **Home** tab and select <img src="Images/AddOnsIcon.png" width="16" alt="AddOnsIcon.png"> **Add-Ons** > **Get Add-Ons**.

## Products

MATLAB® is used throughout. Image Processing Toolbox™ is used for <samp>imsplit</samp> in <samp>Arrays.mlx</samp>.
