Learn 6 programming languages and much more all under 3 months online by Harvard University

Give this blog a minute of your life and take away a glimpse of what can possibly change your life. This blog is a tribute and a possible endorsement of CS50x - Harvard University's Introduction to Computer Science. This course is conducted by Harvard University every fall at Harvard and Yale and gets uploaded on edx the following year as an online course with an opportunity to earn a certificate on completion of the course signed under Harvard University.

Why does this course deserve your attention ?

If you want to know how I started my journey into the world of computers then this course is the answer. You will not learn programming languages here, you will learn how to program and these people do that so easily that when they leave you after 12 weeks period of time to explore more you realise that they have embedded in you an art which has made you so much more powerful with respective you yourself 3 months back. I can pour as much adjectives as I can but they will still fall short in describing the power and output of this course, just go and watch this video to get a glimpse of it.

About this course -

This course is an introduction to computer science and the art of programming for everyone with or without prior programming experience, taught by David J. Malan, CS50x teaches students how to think algorithmically and solve problems efficiently. As of Fall 2016, the on-campus version of CS50x, CS50, was Harvard's largest course.

What you'll learn

A broad and robust understanding of computer science and programming
How to think algorithmically and solve programming problems efficiently
Concepts like abstraction, algorithms, data structures, encapsulation, resource management, security, software engineering, and web development
Familiarity in a number of languages, including C, Python, SQL, and JavaScript plus CSS and HTML
How to engage with a vibrant community of like-minded learners from all levels of experience
How to develop and present a final programming project to your peers

Students who earn a satisfactory score on 9 problem sets (i.e., programming assignments) and a final project are eligible for a certificate. This is a self-paced course–you may take CS50x on your own schedule.
