Course Overview
In the modern world, we rely on technology more than we realize. We use it to send emails, video call friends, play online games, and even set bus schedules. But how do all these things work? The answer is code! Computer programming, or coding, uses sets of ones and zeros to perform important functions in our lives.
Code is essentially the language that instructs a program what to do. There are various types of coding, each serving different purposes. While it may appear as a jumble of letters and numbers to us, to a computer, it's their native language.
Introduction to Coding is an excellent course for gaining a deeper understanding of what coding entails, its widespread applications across various industries and its importance as an indispensable element of our modern business and technological landscape.
