GO Programming for Everyone: Part 1

This course introduces you to the GO programming language. It is appropriate for a beginner, but especially for anyone who already knows C. GO is an open-source programming language developed and supported by Google. It is easy to learn and use. In the new world we live in, coding is a universally valuable skill, whether you're a scientist, artist, or a humanist. Algorithms are everywhere, and we all have to understand how they work. No prior knowledge of coding is needed for this course, but it helps if you have a background in C. The estimated time commitment for this course is five hours a week for five weeks. This is primarily aimed at first- and second-year undergraduates interested in engineering or science, along with high school students and professionals with an interest in programming.
