Building on the course Programming Fundamentals, this course will teach you how to write code by first planning what your program should do—an important approach for novice and professional programmers. You will learn how to compile and run your program, and then how to test and debug it. This course builds on the Seven Steps you have already learned and provides a framework for systematically testing for problems and fixing them, so you can find and fix problems efficiently.

TOP REVIEWS FROM WRITING, RUNNING, AND FIXING CODE IN C
Very detailed and very helpful. Thanks to the tutors for putting together such a detailed course where nothing seems rushed while at the same time everything is explained.
This course looks boring at first sight but when you try to complete the course's assignment it is very challenging
It is actually a hard course i guess you need to have at least the basics as some of the assignments were really hard take me a lot of time to do them. especially the poker assignment
As accustomed by now when it comes to Duke University, Drew and the colleagues, it was just perfect how they pass on the knowledge.
