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
I learned a lot especially the tools required to write and debug the code. It was quite challenging to complete this course as compared to previous course in C.
the PPE is really annoying -- times out arbitrarily, does weird things if you type more characters than the line allows.
A Bit Hard course, since it has many assignments also some are complex, but 100% guaranty that you will learn to run a succesfull code by solving assignments and completing the material
As accustomed by now when it comes to Duke University, Drew and the colleagues, it was just perfect how they pass on the knowledge.
