This course is for everyone. In the new world we live in, coding is a universally valuable skill, whether you're a scientist, artist, or a humanist. Algorithms are everywhere, and we all have to understand how they work. The C language is particularly well suited as an introduction to coding: It's a tried-and-true language, and it allows you to understand computing processes at a deep level. This course is the first part of a two-course sequence. It is a hands-on introduction to programming in C, designed to guide learners step by step from the basics of syntax and data types to more advanced concepts such as control flow, functions, recursion, arrays, and pointers. Through video lessons, quizzes, programming exercises, and real debugging tasks, learners build foundational concepts and good coding practices. By the end, learners will be able to write clear C programs, debug effectively, and build the knowledge base needed for more advanced computer science and software development.

This course introduces you to the GO programming language. It is appropriate for a beginner, but especially for anyone who already knows C. GO is an open-source programming language developed and supported by Google. It is easy to learn and use. In the new world we live in, coding is a universally valuable skill, whether you're a scientist, artist, or a humanist. Algorithms are everywhere, and we all have to understand how they work. No prior knowledge of coding is needed for this course, but it helps if you have a background in C. The estimated time commitment for this course is five hours a week for five weeks. This is primarily aimed at first- and second-year undergraduates interested in engineering or science, along with high school students and professionals with an interest in programming.
