Understanding Programming Methodologies: A Comprehensive Guide Introduction Programming methodologies define structured approaches to writing code, improving efficiency, maintainability, and scalability. Different methodologies provide distinct ways of thinking about problem-solving, organizing logic, and structuring applications. This blog explores various programming methodologies, their advantages, drawbacks, applications, and best use cases. 1. Procedural Programming Procedural programming follows a step-by-step approach where code is structured as procedures or functions. Characteristics: Based on the concept of procedure calls. Follows a linear, top-down execution model. Uses variables, loops, and control structures. Languages: C, Pascal, Fortran Sample Code (C): #include <stdio.h> void greet() { printf("Hello, World!\n"); } int main() { greet(); return 0; } Applications: Embedded systems (e.g., firmware, microcontrollers) Operating systems (e.g., Li...

Introduction :
The course introduces Java language's syntax and
object-oriented programming paradigms from the perspective of Java language.
Further, the course thoroughly touches upon the vital aspects of the usage of
Java runtime library packages' classes and methods.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Course Outcomes :
At the end of this course students will be able to
1. Implement Object Oriented Programming paradigm using Java
language.
2. Exhibit the ability to use Java runtime library APIs to
provide a solution to a given problem.
3. Test and debug a Java program for a given problem.

ISE Evaluation: ISE Evaluation
for the course will consist of three programming (hands on) tests.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Internal Continuous Assessment
(ICA):
ICA shall consist of minimum 15
practical assignment problems.
The assignments should test and
develop student’s practical proficiency and ability to use Java API
Classes correctly for writing
code for varied applications scenarios & use case requirements.
Use of IDEs like BlueJ, Eclipse,
Netbeans or any other FOSS alternative for Interactive development
and debugging of Java
applications is highly recommend to enhance hands on skills in Java
Programming of Students.
