As perhaps the most fundamental course underpinningprofessional-level study and engineering practice for the civil and mechanical disciplines, this courseprovides the necessary background for study of Mechanics of Materials, Structural Analysis, StructuralDynamics, and many other courses requiring a fundamental understanding of static equilibrium, andrelated phenomena. Through homework, quizzes, and exams, students demonstrate competence intopics that are needed for the later courses, as well as for problems such as are encountered on theFundamentals of Engineering (F.E. or Engineering In Training, E.I.T.) exam.The main resources for

Using pseudocode addressesthis issue by allowing the reader to focus on the problem at hand instead of the syntax.
