MIT - Introduction to Computer Science and Programming

This video is a lecturer of MIT who was introducing computer science and programming. This video consists of several parts. This video is suitable for you new students majoring in computer science. Including me. hhhehehe .. I've seen, but I still do not understand the point of it ... :D ..............





MIT - Introduction to Computer Science and Programming|2.54 GB
Genre: Elearning

This subject is aimed at students with little or no programming experience. It aims to provide students with an understanding of the role computation can play in solving problems. It also aims to help students, regardless of their major, to feel justifiably confident of their ability to write small programs that allow them to accomplish useful goals. The class will use the Python programming language
