No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1972–73 to 1976–77 (before that, 1970–71 to 1971–72 used the number for Computer Applications to Engineering Problems); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
An advanced level study of the capabilities of the digital computer and the effective planning of large programmes. Use of functions, subroutines, object decks, load modules, programme libraries, overlay programmes; comparison of different compilers and various systems (FORTRAN, ICES, STRUDL, CPS, WITS, ICETRAN, PL/1); techniques for large systems of equations. Prerequisite: CE 121 or the equivalent.
As printed in the 1972–73 to 1976–77 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

Another title: Computer Applications to Engineering Problems, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
Designed to give the student an appreciation of the capabilities of the digital computer and enable effective planning of large programmes to be accomplished. The use of functions, subroutines, programme libraries, object decks, overlay structures and load modules will be discussed using FORTRAN. Other systems such as ICES, STRUDL, CPS, WITS, ICETRAN and PLI. Use of tapes and other secondary storage is covered as is job control language and plotting facilities.
