Programming languages are the means by which humans solve problems on computers. They express algorithms in a sufficiently precise manner for execution on computers.
Humans use a variety of strategies to solve problems that range from search to logic. Programming languages too are designed to reflect such strategies. For example, today's popular languages such as Java, C++ and Python give a sequence of instructions which together solve a problem; LISP uses a functional approach while Prolog is designed for logic.
In this course, students learn the general concepts that are common to all programming languages so that they learn the underlying abstractions and problem-solving strategies. Further, they learn to understand and appreciate the salient features of many programming languages. They learn how to make a critical choice of the level of abstraction needed to solve a problem and pick a suitable language. The assignments will use languages familiar to a typical CS UG student for illustration and self-exploration.

Each group will be given 15 minutes to make a presentation. Please prepare no more than 15 slides as I will be strictly maintaining the time.
There will be a 5 minutes questions session after the presentation.
Note that the presentations scheduled for Wednesday, 19/11/2025 will be done during our regular class hours from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in our classroom. I request all the students to be present and ask questions to your friends.
* - you have to present static and runtime structures.
** - you have to present the major changes between versions. You should
also mention which are minor revisions.
+ You must run the code as a part of the presentation.
