What you will learn

Practice and understand loops, arrays, recursion, OOP and more

Code beginner and intermediate projects using C#

Become an intermediate programmer by understanding the how and why of each line in your program

Think like a programmer

Description

C# is an excellent programming language. It’s part of the .Net family of languages, and as such, it allows you to program some truly amazing solutions. So, congratulations on choosing to learn this amazing language. :-)

As it is common among beginner programmers, the enthusiasm to learn often is not enough to make the leap from beginner to intermediate.  The bad news is: code fear is real, and it hinders, or even stops your progress. The good news is: you can learn to eliminate it! And all it takes is a little practice and determination. And that’s where this course will help you greatly!

The course goes over several C# programming exercises. I show you how to put the theory you learned into practice by showing you how to solve each exercise and walking you through all the Why’s and How’s. 

In the process, you will learn how to translate the project requirements into a working code. You will learn to use many different programming concepts, such as Conditional Statements, Loops, Arrays, Multi-dimensional arrays, OOP… and pick the right one for your solution. But above all, you will learn to think like a programmer!

This course is all about practice. Therefore, to benefit from this course, you need to be an active student. It doesn't matter if you are self-taught or attend a programming course. What matters is the time and effort you are willing to put into learning and practicing your skills. 

There are no lectures in this course. However, I do my best to explain what I am trying to accomplish with each line of code, and touch on common pitfalls, too. 

This is a course for beginner to intermediate C# programmers who need to put the concepts and theory they learned into practice and for people who prefer to learn by doing. This is NOT a course for absolute beginner!

If that's you, then let's start coding!

Great course for someone beginning in C# logic. Definitely makes you think. It also helped to go back and do these over from scratch and only look at the solutions if you were stumped. Thanks

Pavol is an awesome instructor and you will learn so much by going through this course. I found this course to be different from other data structures and algorithms courses in that you think of these puzzles as games vs problems.

I've watched a lot of Pavol's C# videos now and he's exceptional. His videos walk you through how he solves problems and he does it in a well thought out manner, meaning that you take a lot from the experience. I can't fault him at all and he's helped me out tons.

I was rusty would recursion, so that part was very helpful. Some of his ways/techniques were different from what I would have done, but it was good to be presented with a different/alternate way. Pavoi's English is very good, however there are a few words that could be pronounced better. I would rate it 6 stars for the value of the course. For 7 hours worth of tutorial, it is amazing for what little I paid.

Great course. You will need some basic concepts to start (variables, arrays, loops and so on), but those you can find in many other courses. Everything is project based and focuses on the logic of programming, more than in the syntax as most courses do. The projects are also quite interesting. I miss however some previous explanations and UML diagrams.
