How to Code: Simple Data (edX)
Learn systematic program design - how to write programs that tell a clear story about what they do, are well-tested, and easy to improve. This programming course takes a unique approach, as it focuses on learning a systematic programming method rather than a programming language. This practical approach will help you channel your creativity so that you can program well in any language.
