Do you want to land a 6-figure entry-level job consisting mostly of creative thinking, design, and problem-solving? Then you will love programming.
It is a common misconception that programming is about “math skills” — in reality, most industry programming demands linguistic and analytical skill. Though it only demands this if you want to be good — plenty of fine programmers get by just because the tools are so powerful.
Programming is challenging, fun, and personally rewarding. You are literally conducting matter to perform meaningful operations over 3 BILLION times per second. This is a basic liberal art, like storytelling, mathematics, or politics.
In this class you will learn how to program from industry experts.
