Course Description

Master the Theory to Becoming a Good Programmer!
If you're looking to learn the theory that makes great programmers,you've come to the right place!
This course is perfect for anyone interested in learning the fundamentals to Computer Science Theory.
No Previous Experience Necessary!
Computer science and technology are often thought of as things only for "analytical minds". I believe however that technology and it's theory are for everyone. So I designed thiscourse toteach each topic in a variety ofeasy to digest ways. Through these multiple reinforcing steps, I believe anyone can follow along and succeed!
Why is the Theory of Programming Important?
UnderstandingComputer Science theory is what sets apartGreat programmersfrom average ones. Programming theory is something that transcends a single programming language. It gives you skills and techniques you can apply to any programming language you touch. Learning the theory behind programming is just as important, if not more important than learning a singular programming language like Java or C++.
Programming is all about problem solving. Analyzing a problem, and being able to figure out a way that a computer can help with that problem. Computer Science is the practice of this analysis process. It goes over the techniques and knowledge necessary to design efficient and sustainable code.
So if you want to begin setting yourself apart from the average programmers, this is the course for you!

I am a self-taught multi-media designer and computer scientistwho hashelpedbring the creative vision of clientsall around the world to life. Having 8+ years of experience in the AdobeProduction Suite has given me a strong tool-set to create anything from videos to websites. Along with this, having a degree in ComputerScience hasgiven me a strong analytical mind for dealing with complexproblems.Through these two disciplinesI create a unique blend of efficiency and creativity.I believe anyone can become a designer or programmer. All it takes is practice.
I am also a world traveler and have lived in and learned from manydifferent countries. During a 6 month stay in Japan, I became fascinated with their people's drive and craftsmanship. I try to incorporate that same level of energy,passion and detail-oriented work as much as possiblein to my own life.
Being self-taught in many of my endeavors, I know how important it is to have high quality content. I learned most of my Adobe skills through countlesshours of YouTube videos by the greats like FreddieW and Andrew Kramer. I decided to start giving back to the community that helped me so much, and created my YouTube Channel,AdobeMasters. Through this YouTube channel, Iam able to create tutorials for anyone who wants to teach themselves these amazing products, just like Iwanted to so many years ago.
This is only the beginning.I want to continue expanding my network and providingm

El contenido es muy interesante y te ayuda a entender mejor la ciencia detrs de la programacin. Tambin aprendes cosas muy tiles con las cules podrs ser mejor programador y que te ayudarn a escribir cdigos ms eficientes. Aprendes a utilizar los recursos de memoria y procesamiento de una mejor manera.
El instructor es bueno explicando y simplificando los temas. El nico detalle que necesita mejorar es la plataforma que usa para presentar e ir haciendo anotaciones, ya que a veces que no se entiende bien lo que escribe. A pesar de esto ltimo, de cualquier forma recomiendo el curso.

Way too fast. Need roadway, not freeway. Making more sense, but still a little fast, but not annoyingly so

good teaching !!

Binary, Deca, Hexa, Yep got it

At times a bit chaotic, but I'm satisfied overall.

By Jose Reinoso on 11/6/2020

I like it, the only one thing i would say that would make this course a complete 5 start its briging some coding examples to each individual algorithm/data structure in order to visualize it better.

Great refresher for CS basics!

By Sami Ashour on 10/27/2020

I'm still in the beginnings.
I feel that it's a bit rushed. I feel that there were a couple points that were very confusing. Also I felt that that there isn't much respect to the possibility that my math could be very bad that there's basic concepts that need more explanations, and/or that the math vocabulary (because of learning Math in a non-Latin alphabet language) might be different for me so I'd need a bit of quick defining for certain terms.
Other than that it was good so far.
It's only 12 minutes in, but I mean if you're asking for a review there it is

This course has valuable and information and clear explanations. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in the course subject.

Can literally study anywhere

By Andrea G. on 10/21/2020

Awesome course. Perfect for beginners. I love the white board effect instead of PowerPoint slides. I am a senior technical writer that has worked for software firms and have written and coded my own websites. I am learning more about software dev so I can better support clients and get the jobs I really want. This course really helped me understand the basics, especially about arrays.
(Now JavaScript makes much more sense) Course was so well done that I immediately bought the follow on Software Engineering 101. Hey, if there is one thing this pandemic is good for, it's the chance to stay at home and spend the time and effort getting the education you're missing!
