 στο Google / Hash Code  επισημασμένο με ετικέτα code / Κύπρος / google / hash / hash code Από

We’ll be hosting a hub at the University of Cyprus for the Online Qualification Round of Hash Code, a team-based programming competition created by Google for university students and industry professionals. The Online Qualification Round takes place on the 24th of February at 19:30 EET and registered teams from Cyprus are invited to participate from our hub, which will take place at the Computer Science Department. Top scoring teams from the Online Qualification Round will then be invited to Google’s office to compete in the Final Round of the competition in April.

If you’re interested in joining our hub, find a team (two to four people) and register at g.co/hashcode. Make sure to select the University of Cyprus from the list of hubs in the Judge System.

Programming Course Series [01 – Introductory course to python]

 στο IEEE  επισημασμένο με ετικέτα course / Κύπρος / ieee / python Από

Computer programming is important today because so much of our world is automated. Humans need to be able to control the interaction between people and machines. Since computers and machines are able to do things so efficiently and accurately, we use computer programming to harness that computing power.

This is the first of hopefully many programming courses that can introduce technically inclined people to Python programming.

Topic:

Everybody can write a computer program (An introduction using Python)

Agenda

Introduction to programming and reasons to write programs?

These are the course-wide materials as well as Introductions’ first section where we discuss what writing programs mean. In the third part of the class, we will finish the Introduction and have the quiz and first task.

Installing and Using Python

We’re going to set up stuff so that you can write Python programs.

Introduction to programming and reasons to write programs? (continued)

We try to cover the “big picture” of programming so that you get a “table of contents” from what to expect to learn. Don’t worry if, the first time you hear it, not everything makes perfect sense. This part is very broad.

Variables and Expressions

We will explain how a program uses the memory of the machine to store, retrieve and process information in this section.

Conditional Code

We will move from sequential code in this section that simply runs one line of code after another to conditional code where some steps are skipped. It is a very basic idea – but it is how “choices” are made by computer software.

Functions

We are going to learn about what functions are and how we can use them. Functions will be an essential way for us to make sense of our code, as we move into more and more complicated programs.

Loops and Iteration

Our four fundamental programming patterns are completed by loops and iteration. Loops are the way we say Python over and over to do something. Loops are the manner in which we create programs that remain with a problem until the problem is solved.

Cyprus Radio Frequencies for cars imported from Japan

 στο Other  επισημασμένο με ετικέτα Κύπρος / frequency / japan / radio Από

If you are having trouble with the radio of your car that was imported from Japan and you cannot tune in to your favorite radio stations you might have to do a little math!

On many cars that were imported from Japan it seems that to tune in to the station you like you need to subtract from the frequency 16Mhz. For example, if the station you are interested in is broadcasting at 97.2Mhz you will have to set your car radio to 81.2Mhz to listen to it.

A list of frequencies will follow soon.
