What you'll learn:
- Write simple JavaScript programs
- Understand basic programming concepts
- Write documentation for functions, constants, and enumerations
Course Description
There aren't many people who can both code and write well, so if you can do both, you will find theremany exciting, highly-paidopportunities in the technologyindustry.This course teaches basic programming to writers so that you can begin to document code.
The course uses JavaScript, but talks about other programming languages as well, including providinga survey of common programming languages. It covers common Computer Science concepts, such as variables, functions, conditionals, loops, etc.
You'll have hands-on exercises in both writing JavaScript code and documenting constants, functions, and enumerations. You'll end with a final project where you build a therapist bot. (It's not as hard as it sounds, although it's really not a very good therapist.)
