If you\u2019d like to explore how we can interact with the world in a rigorous, computational way, and would also like to start learning to program, this is the course for you!<\/p>\n<p>You may have heard lots of talk about computational thinking recently, but if you ask 10 different people what it is you\u2019ll probably get 10 different answers. Rather than trying to define computational thinking, we\u2019ll just say it\u2019s a problem-solving process that includes lots of different components. In this course, we\u2019ll explore algorithms and data collection.<\/p>\n<p>Most people have a better understanding of what beginning C programming means! You\u2019ll start learning how to develop C programs in this course by writing your first C program; learning about data types, variables, and constants; and honing your C programming skills by implementing a variety of STEM computations. This course doesn&#8217;t assume you have any previous programming experience, so don&#8217;t worry if you&#8217;ve never written code before.<\/p>\n<p>If that all sounds interesting to you, go ahead and jump into the course!<\/p>\n<p>Caution: Beginning (assuming no prior programming knowledge) is not the same as easy (not hard to do). Learning to program IS hard to do, especially since the courses in this specialization are built from a freshman-level college course. Meeting the course challenges while you master the material will be rewarding to you, but doing that will require hard work and maybe even a few expletives along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Module 1: Learn about algorithms and write your first C program<br \/>\nModule 2: Discover how we store data in our programs<br \/>\nModule 3: Explore how we use data collection to solve problems and answer questions<br \/>\nModule 4: Practice writing C programs to implement STEM computations<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Price: Enroll For Free!<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-light-gray-color has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/algorithms-data-collection-code\">View Class<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Language:<\/strong> <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Subtitles<\/strong>: <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"background-color:#496d89\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/algorithms-data-collection-code\">Algorithms, Data Collection, and Starting to Code<strong> &#8211; University of Colorado System<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description This course starts you on your journey learning about computational thinking and beginning C programming.
