Course Description
 
 
Beginning Programming: PHP (CS 41)
Have you ever wondered what software developers do? If so, then this course is for you. In this hands-on course, students will explore the world of programming by learning the fundamental grammar and meaning of the PHP programming language. PHP is a computer scripting language that has been used for many years to produce dynamic Web pages.

Students will come away with a fundamental understanding of programming that will be applicable to other programming languages. Topics covered include language basics (syntax, semantics, data types), variable basics, control flow structures, functions, file handling, and ways to leverage others’ code through the use of libraries. By the end of the course students will be able to write and build a program, and will be able to figure out how to solve a problem in a programmatic way.

No previous programming experience is necessary, although students must have access to a computer, be familiar with computer basics, and have access to the Internet. We will be working on the Windows platform; however, since the programming concepts are universal, you can apply what you learn to other computer languages.

Please note the updated class schedule: This course is now 6 weeks, ending on October 28. The tuition is now $295.
