    Course Objectives:
    A large part of everyday activity involves problem solving in some form. On order to solve
    problem one must think analytically to find a solution to a problem. The main aim of this
    course is:
    1. To improve and impart conceptual clarity in thinking analytically and logically.
    2. To provide fundamental means of approach how to translate verbal discussion onto
    analytical data and then how to solve it by computer.

    Course Contents:

    1. Basic Concepts of Problem Solving (10 hrs)


    Introduction to Problem Solving Approach. How to count. Use of induction
    principle. Problems of Logic and Issues of Parity.

    2. Application of Geometry (10 hrs)


    Classical Planar Geometry. Analytic Geometry. Solid Geometry and miscellaneous
    problems.

    3. Miscellaneous Problem Solving Techniques (15 hrs)


    Probabilistic approach to solving Counting Problems. Logic Problems (Simple
    logic, theory of games. Tracing routes. Learning from Parity. Mysterious arithmetic
    problems and surprise). Problems from Recreational math. (Magic square and
    Weighing problems). Problems of Algebra and Analysis (Inequality, Trignometry
    and related ideas).

    4. Solving Miscellaneous Real Life Problems (10 hrs)


    Miscellaneous problems, impossible problems, Problems from everyday life and
    Statistics.

    Laboratory Work:
    Realization and Implementation of the numerous problems and various problem-
    solving techniques learned is to be implemented in C Programming Language.
    However, the practical implementation is also considered as an assignment for the
    "Programming in C" course module.
