New students take the Mastery Skill Profiler to determine their current level of programming and discrete mathematics skills. Students may skip this 0-credit foundational course if their results demonstrate proficiency in foundational mathematical and processing skills.
This course will introduce students to basic mathematical and processing topics. These topics include numbering systems, summations, progressions, combinatorics, logarithms, matrices, probabilities and how to use basic processing tools to compute those. The topics are intended to set a solid discrete mathematical foundation to develop basic programming skills in a simple script language and to allow the student to support discrete mathematics operations with basic script language commands.
