Synopsis
CS100(J,M) offers an introduction to elementary computer programming concepts. The course emphasizes techniques of problem analysis and the development of algorithms and programs. You must register for either of two versions of CS100 which both use Java and MATLAB:

Neither course presumes previous programming experience. But, you must have a firm background in mathematics and at least one semester of calculus to take CS100M. Refer to http://www.cs.cornell.edu/ugrad/FirstCourse.html#CS100 for more information about both courses.

Alternatives
If you are shopping around for a "first course'' to take in computer science, you need to evaluate your current programming expertise. Refer to http://www.cs.cornell.edu/ugrad/FirstCourse.html for more information about the courses that may suit your needs better than CS100.
