Beginner to Advanced Computing and Logic Building
Gain insights into fundamental and advanced computational techniques, explore efficient algorithm design, and learn to build interactive games. Discover strategies to tackle FAANG coding challenges.
This course focuses on building logic to solve simple to advanced coding problems. You will learn advanced computational techniques to solve real-world problems. The solutions for most problems are curated in a way that each solution is followed by a more efficient one, enabling you to devise the most efficient algorithm from the start.
The course starts with the fundamentals of variables, loops, and arrays, and progresses to more advanced concepts such as creating games like Gomoku, Word Search, and Game of Life using the divide and conquer approach. The course also includes a built-in debugger to help you understand the code by setting breakpoints and analyzing variable values.
Concepts will be demonstrated via animations and illustrations to engage your interest and give you hands-on experience in building interactive games. By the end of the course, you will be well-prepared to tackle coding challenges commonly found in FAANG interviews.
