This course is focused on algorithmic problems, where a solution involves properly understanding a written description, designing an efficient algorithm to solve the problem, and then correctly implementing the solution. Students will use previous knowledge in algorithms, data structures, and mathematical reasoning to solve problems in addition to learning new algorithms and data structures. Lectures are shared with CMPUT 403. Credit cannot be obtained for both CMPUT 303 and CMPUT 403. Prerequisites: One of CMPUT 201 or CMPUT 275, CMPUT 204.
