I taught Principles of Programming (CSE110) for five years at Arizona State University –Summer 2022, Summer 2020, Summer 2019, Summer 2018, and Summer 2017.

CSE110 is an introductory course to programming using the Java programming language. It requires no previous background in programming and concentrates on problem-solving using Java, algorithm design, structured programming, fundamental algorithms and techniques, and computer systems concepts.
