Outline
This module continues the development of AI programming skills using the language Pop-11. More advanced techniques involving recursion, grammar, database and the implementation of search strategies will also be introduced.
Aims
The aims of this module are to:
- increase the level of the students' understanding of the pop-11 programming language
- improve the level of sophistication of students' programming skills
- expose the students to a number of fundamental AI techniques in a practical context
Learning Outcomes
| On successful completion of this module, the student should be able to: | Assessed by: | |
| 1 | demonstrate a practical understanding of the pop-11 programming language | In-lab test |
| 2 | demonstrate an ability to use the poplog development environment effectively | In-lab test |
| 3 | demonstrate a practical understanding of how to implement a number of classic AI programming techniques | In-lab test |
| 4 | show an ability to break down programming problems into component parts | In-lab test |
