Introduction to Programming
This course is designed to teach the fundamentals of programming. Depending on the client requirements, it uses the relevant environment - such as Visual Basic, Java, C#, C++, Python etc - to show various principles, examples, and structures. It can be used as an introduction to any development language as it outlines the concepts rather than the specific features of a particular language, which would be the next stage in the development of new programmers.
