This course is an introduction to the basic concepts of programming languages, with a strong emphasis on functional programming. The course uses the languages ML, Racket, and Ruby as vehicles for teaching the concepts, but the real intent is to teach enough about how any language “fits together” to make you more effective programming in any language -- and in learning new ones.

CS: Information & Technology

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is reshaping the accounting and finance profession. 40% of transactional accounting work is expected to be automated by 2020 and predicted to touch 230 million knowledge workers, 9% of the global workforce, according to McKinsey Research. Driven by the need to stay competitive, decrease costs and increase efficiency, RPA is quickly making a significant impact on the profession. Companies no longer think about "if" but "when" to implement RPA.

Programming Reactive Systems (Coursera)

CS: Software Engineering Computer Science

Reactive programming is a set of techniques for implementing scalable, resilient and responsive systems. The basic building-block of such systems is event handlers. This course teaches how to implement reactive systems in Scala by using high-level abstractions based on event-handlers. You will learn how to: use, transform and sequence asynchronous computations using Future values; write concurrent systems based on Actors, using untyped Akka and Akka Typed; design systems resilient to failures; implement systems that can scale out according to a varying workload; transform and consume infinite and intermittent streams of data with Akka Stream; understand how back-pressure controls flows of data

CS: Software Engineering Computer Science

The Control Flow in RPA course provides a deep understanding of the automation flow. Control Flow is a concept that refers to the order in which actions are executed and "control" flows in an automation project with the help of sequences, decision making, loops, and flowcharts. This course also focuses on the error handling mechanism which is vital for an automation project. The course has multiple practice exercises which will help in strengthening your knowledge and understanding of workflows in Studio.
