The course teaches the OCaml programming language and requires no specific prior knowledge. It is open to students at all levels, both to students who already know programming and want to learn a more elegant programming paradigm, and also to students without prior programming experience. More information about the course is available on its Moodle page: <a href="https://moodle.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/course/view.php?id=57071" target="_blank">https://moodle.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/course/view.php?id=57071</a><br><br>Please consider attending and also please help us spread the word to any students who could be interested in learning functional programming!<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>We're following up with a few more details about the Functional Programming course from SS 2024. First, this optional course <b>can be taken for credit</b> by BSc and MSc students in Computer Science*, Applied Computer Science*, and IT Security*, by MSc students in Mathematics ("Nebenfach Informatik"), and by CASA PhD students.</div><div><br></div><div>Second, the <b>lecture</b> will take place on Wednesdays, 14:00-16:00 (from 10 April to 17 July) in lecture hall HGB 30 and we will also try to stream and record it. For everyone's benefit though, we would like this to remain a mostly in-person course though, so to get the best out of it, we encourage everyone to attend the lecture in person whenever possible.</div><div><br></div><div>Finally, the <b>exercise sessions</b> take place in person on Thursdays 10:00-12:00 and 14:00-16:00 and Fridays 10:00-12:00 (from 18 April to 19 July) in building MB, floor 5, room SM-MO-506, which is an MPI-SP seminar room.
