I am trying to decide which course to take in college between Introduction to Computer Science and Fundamentals of Programming.

Which one of these would be more beneficial to me for learning algorithms and programs that can be used in the finance world, more specifically pertaining to the stock market?

Here are the course descriptions (which I don't understand) but you might be able to use it to help me further:

Introduction to Computer Science-

This course is intended for students who are interested in an algorithmic approach to problem solving using computers and their applications. Topics presented include terminology used in the computer field, introduction to computer systems and their applications. Students will work with various software packages on a microcomputer.

Fundamentals of Programming-

This course is an introduction to computer systems and structured programming techniques. Topics considered include an introduction to the components of a computer system; problem solving and algorithm design; standard data types and declarations; input and output techniques; operators; library functions; fundamental control statements; arrays and strings; data sorting; and files. Applications are selected from various fields of study.

I appreciate all input!!!
