The course comprises the following components:
-the structure and function of the computer
-basic syntax and semantics
-sequence, selection and iteration
-data types and references
-operators and expression
-error search and testing
-functions
-algorithms
-sorting and searching
-memory management
-recursion
-file management
-documentation techniques

Progressive specialisation: G1N (has only upper‐secondary level entry requirements)
