Building Objects in C (Coursera)

Offered by University of Michigan,

In this course, learn how Python was built in C and, by extension, languages like Java and JavaScript. Review object-oriented programming syntax from several languages and use your knowledge of C to build a library that integrates high-level data structures like strings, lists, and dictionaries. Learn how to make your program run as efficiently as possible by covering memory allocation, de-allocation, and object lifecycle.

Functional Programming Principles in Scala (Coursera)

CS: Software Engineering CS: Programming

Functional programming is becoming increasingly widespread in industry. This trend is driven by the adoption of Scala as the main programming language for many applications. Scala fuses functional and object-oriented programming in a practical package. It interoperates seamlessly with both Java and Javascript. Scala is the implementation language of many important frameworks, including Apache Spark, Kafka, and Akka. It provides the core infrastructure for sites such as Twitter, Tumblr and also Coursera.
