Great course but auditing seems impossible since all lessons are locked until one upgrades.

A great introduction to C programming language with superb online IDE to practice with.

Excellent course for beginner to learn C programming. The codecase used in this course is very powerful. And the explanations by professors are very clear. Highly recommended for everyone who want to start learning C programming.

Great explanation of the basics; very simplified which makes information easy to handle, especially with the help of their awesome tool codecast!

Great course for absolute beginner. Interactive learning methods are higly efective both learning and practicing.

honestly, it's very hands-on learning, which is my learning style so I loved it.

very useful and simple method of teaching...really enjoyed a lot

Very detailed instruction and lots of hands-on activities.

I was very impressed with the quality of C Programming: Getting Started. The teachers [ Petra Bonfert-Taylor and Rémi Sharrock ], are incredibly competent and the teaching material together with the learning environment are fantastic. I am very pleased to be able to complete the first course of the Specialization Program. Many thanks, Coursera, Dartmouth College, Institut Mines-Télécom and not least Patrick and Lina Drahi Foundation, for democratizing quality education.

This course is absolutly is what that I desired. Thank you

Simple and practical.

I'm sure this course is good. Unfortunately, I could access nothing. There is absolutely nothing to audit in this course. Everything is for paid students only. I was excited about this. C and Linux are something I always wanted to get deeper into. Coursera began with a mission and I've been following it for a decade. But I think the free courses are getting subverted now with more and more courses offereing restrictive or payment only content. This is a huge disappointment for life-long learners like me.

The "Programming in C: First Steps - 1" course offers a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to build a solid foundation in programming. Here are some key points that highlight the value of this course: Fundamental Concepts: This course introduces the essential concepts of programming in C, providing a strong base for beginners. You'll learn to write, compile, and execute simple programs. Widely Used Language: C is one of the most utilized programming languages in software development, especially in embedded systems, operating systems, and high-performance applications. Mastering C is a significant asset in the job market. Hands-On Learning: The course includes practical exercises that allow you to apply the concepts learned. This hands-on approach fosters a deep understanding and the ability to solve real-world problems. Guidance and Support: Experienced instructors provide personalized support, answering questions and guiding participants through every step of their learning journey. Logical Skill Development: Programming in C enhances logical thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential in many technical fields. Preparation for Advanced Studies: Once the basics are mastered, this course prepares participants to tackle more advanced concepts, such as object-oriented programming or other programming languages.

Awesome course, I do not have words to express how much I appreciate the teacher's efforts, amazing dedication.

The course is brought to the student in the most accessible and easy way on the world with really step by step guidance.

Huge thank you, you made me realize how a great teacher looks like without even meeting, just via a MOOC.

Definitely worth's it, for me at least it was the most exciting programming course I have ever seen.

All the best for everyone!

This course provided a great introduction to C programming, covering fundamental concepts in a clear and structured way. The explanations were easy to follow, and the exercises helped reinforce learning. However, adding more coding challenges and real-world examples would make it even better. Overall, a solid course for beginners!

Absolute the better way to teach a Compute Science or programming class. Such ways and such methodology should be reproduced. The only lacking this course might probably have is theoretical foundations which can be covered using some kind of interactive lessons on pdfs of books or something.

Codecast is incredible. You would expect a lot of bugs or slow processing for a fully online compiler like this, but I never had any issues. The instructors were very clear and concise and the assignments were a good measure of how well the ideas of each objective were learned.

Dear Sir

This is Tun-Min, from Taiwan. Thank you for such constructive course of C programming. It really helps me to build the ablity of programming C language step by step. In addition, your tutorial tools are really good.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Tun-Min KAO

Great course and perfect for beginners. I also like the fact you actually write code and see someone write the code instead of just watching someone talk about coding without even showing you how to actually write the code.

Incredibly, I had an extraordinary experience. I genuinely feel that I am on the right track in learning C and grasping its fundamental concepts.
