This beginner-level path introduces Kotlin syntax and shows you how to create simple scripts, solve mathematical problems, and control program flow. You will practice using for, while, and do-while loops to manage repetitive operations.

You will learn to define reusable functions with parameters and return types, including overloaded functions. You will also work with arrays, lists, and maps to organize and manipulate data.

The path then develops your object-oriented programming skills through classes, objects, inheritance, and encapsulation. It is designed for learners with a basic understanding of computer programming who want to build practical Kotlin skills.
