General purpose dynamic languages like Python and Ruby have become increasing popular and well suited for the creation of full stack web applications. This course will introduce students to the syntax and programmatic idioms of both Ruby and Python. The following topics will be covered in both languages: complex data types, loops, conditionals, command line applications, and the object-oriented programming paradigm. The commonly used web frameworks of each language will be explored and used to create and deploy a full stack web application to a cloud provider. Prerequisite: CS 1400.
