How To Program In The Age of AI

Utilizing AI Models To Learn How To Code Multiple Programming Languages
What you'll learn:
How to get into coding with no prior experience.
Key terms that are applicable across programming languages.
Lectures and hands on coding examples.
Understanding the theory and nuances of programming languages.
Requirements:
No programming experience is needed, this course is designed to be an introduction to coding.
Description:
This course provides a comprehensive overview of the core concepts, technologies, and methodologies behind modern software development. Key areas of focus includerogramming Paradigms: Explore the diverse ways in which programming languages approach problem-solving. Gain an understanding of imperative programming (step-by-step instructions), object-oriented programming (data and behavior as objects), and functional programming (focus on pure functions and avoiding state changes).Front-End vs. Back-End Development: Learn the distinction between the user-facing side of websites and applications (front-end) and the logic and data management happening behind the scenes (back-end). Discover how HTML, CSS, and JavaScript shape the visual presentation, while languages like Python, Java, or Ruby on Rails drive server-side functionality.Compiling vs. Interpreting: Understand the fundamental ways in which the code you write is translated into instructions a computer can execute. Delve into how compilers transform source code into machine-level instructions and how interpreters execute code in a more dynamic fashion.The Power of Frameworks: Discover how frameworks provide structure and accelerate web development projects with their pre-built components, design patterns, and tools. Explore popular options like React, Angular, Django, and Spring, understanding the benefits they offer in terms of organization and efficiency.Upon completing this course, students will be able to:Grasp the core principles of programming languages and their role in software development.Differentiate between front-end and back-end development technologies and the typical languages used in each area.Explain the concepts of code compilation and interpretation, including trade-offs between the two approaches.Understand the purpose of frameworks, how they streamline development, and when to employ them effectively.Build a foundation for further exploration of specific languages, frameworks, and development domains.
Who this course is for:
Beginner developers interested in learning how to code in the age of AI.
