C and Go: Classical and Modern Programming

University of California, Santa Cruz via Coursera Specialization

Overview

This specialization is intended for all programming enthusiasts, as well as beginners, computer and other scientists, and artificial intelligence enthusiasts seeking to develop their programming skills in the classical languages of C and its more modern successor Go. Through the four courses—two in C, and two in Go—you will cover the basics of programming in C and move on to the more advanced Go semantics and syntax, which will prepare you to apply these skills to higher-level problems using AI algorithms and Monte Carlo simulations.

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. No prior knowledge of coding is needed for this course. We'll start at the beginning. The time estimated time commitment for this course is five hours a week for five weeks.
