Rather than trying to define computational thinking, we\u2019ll just say it\u2019s a problem-solving process that includes lots of different components. Most people have a better understanding of what beginning C programming means!<\/p>\n<p>This course assumes you have the prerequisite knowledge from the previous three courses in the specialization. You should make sure you have that knowledge, either by taking those previous courses or from personal experience, before tackling this course. The required prerequisite knowledge is listed below. <\/p>\n<p>Prerequisite computational thinking knowledge: Algorithms and procedures; data collection, analysis, and representation; abstraction; and problem decomposition<br \/>\nPrerequisite C knowledge: Data types, variables, constants; STEM computations; selection; iteration (looping); arrays; strings; and functions<\/p>\n<p>Throughout this course the computational thinking topics you&#8217;ll explore are: automation, simulation, parallelization, and algorithm analysis.For the programming topics, you&#8217;ll continue building on your C knowledge by implementing file input and output in your programs and by exploring pointers in more depth.<\/p>\n<p>Module 1: Learn how to read, write, and append to files. Explore automation<br \/>\nModule 2: Discover the benefits of simulation and parallelization<br \/>\nModule 3: Learn how to perform algorithm analysis to quantify algorithm complexity<br \/>\nModule 4: Explore how to use pointers in more depth<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Price: Enroll For Free!<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-light-gray-color has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/simulation-algorithm-analysis-pointers\">View Class<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Language:<\/strong> <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Subtitles<\/strong>: <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"background-color:#496d89\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/simulation-algorithm-analysis-pointers\">Simulation, Algorithm Analysis, and Pointers<strong> &#8211; University of Colorado System<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description This course is the fourth and final course in the specialization exploring both computational thinking and beginning C programming.
