Learn to program in the Java programming language. This course assumes no prior programming knowledge, just a desire to learn to program.
Java is one of the most popular object-oriented programming language around the world. Released in 1995 by Sun Microsystems, Java has been around for quite a while, and has seen vast improvements over the years.
Java is also entirely platform independent: that is, it can run on a variety of different operating systems: from laptops and desktops, gaming systems and phones. Java programs can be used on nearly any device, making it a great programming language to learn at any stage of your career or simply for fun.
Over the course of 75 video lectures and 16 hours of content, you will learn all about Java - one of the most versatile and ubiquitous programming languages in the world. From the basics of what Java is and general set-up through actual programming and finding a job in the software engineering field, this course is your one-stop shop.
This course is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction into Java, even for those with zero experience in programming. You will start off building a solid foundation of basic concepts and gradually progress to more advanced execution and refinement. Throughout the lectures, you will begin to assemble the building blocks of Java, allowing you to expand your skills in a structured, easy-to-follow method.
Upon completion of this course, you will have the ability to apply your knowledge and learning to start building web, mobile, or desktop applications, or even teach a course of your own.

The Unix Workbench (Coursera)

Unix forms a foundation that is often very helpful for accomplishing other goals you might have for you and your computer, whether that goal is running a business, writing a book, curing disease, or creating the next great app. The means to these goals are sometimes carried out by writing software. Software can’t be mined out of the ground, nor can software seeds be planted in spring to harvest by autumn. Software isn’t produced in factories on an assembly line. Software is a hand-made, often bespoke good. If a software developer is an artisan, then Unix is their workbench.
