Programming in C (Coursera)

Offered by University of Michigan,
Programming in C (Coursera)

C remains one of the most popular languages thanks to its portability and efficiency, and laying the groundwork for many programming languages like C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python. In this course, you’ll dive deeper into the syntax of C, learning the functions of the language and how to properly apply them within an algorithm. Identify types, operators, and expressions within C to build recursive functions and examine the role of the C preprocessor in achieving software portability.

Introduction to HTML5 (Coursera)

CS: Programming

Thanks to a growing number of software programs, it seems as if anyone can make a webpage. But what if you actually want to understand how the page was created? There are great textbooks and online resources for learning web design, but most of those resources require some background knowledge. This course is designed to help the novice who wants to gain confidence and knowledge. We will explore the theory (what actually happens when you click on a link on a webpage?), the practical (what do I need to know to make my own page?), and the overlooked (I have a page, what do I do now?).

Programming Languages, Part B (Coursera)

CS: Programming

This course is an introduction to the basic concepts of programming languages, with a strong emphasis on functional programming. The course uses the languages ML, Racket, and Ruby as vehicles for teaching the concepts, but the real intent is to teach enough about how any language “fits together” to make you more effective programming in any language -- and in learning new ones. This course is neither particularly theoretical nor just about programming specifics -- it will give you a framework for understanding how to use language constructs effectively and how to design correct and elegant programs.
