Overview
Welcome to the course webpage for the Winter 2008 term of CSC148H/A48H, an Introduction to Computer Science. This course teaches the basics of computer science in Python, which is an industrial-strength programming language used at companies like Google and Industrial Light and Magic.
The instructors (Cathy, Jeremy, and Paul) on the three UofT campuses are collaborating on the course in order to provide you with a uniform offering. The navigation menu to the left contains links to general information, as well as campus-specific details.
The course is delivered through 2 (at StG) or 3 (at UTM and UTSC) lecture hours a week plus eight 2-hour closed labs.
Outside of class and lab, you will also complete a set of assignments and tests and a final exam.
