The course aims to provide the fundamentals of technical-scientific programming to solve problems related to civil engineering. During the course, students are introduced to programming concepts in Matlab and Excel environments and address issues related to data processing, reading and writing data and results from and to files, and presenting the results graphically and textually to find solutions to common aspects of civil engineering. TEACHING METHODS Theoretical lectures Guided exercises conducted by the teacher SYLLABUS/CONTENT Basic description of computer operation. Description of the main programming constructs, with a particular focus on the MATLAB language. Basic description of the functionality of spreadsheets (MS Excel). Exercises with technical-scientific problems and examples of solutions using programming and/or spreadsheets RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY Lecture notes and instructions are available in the Aulaweb space reserved for the course, for both the theoretical and programming components.
