Students will learn to create their own computer programs using the C# programming language. This programming course is meant for ANYONE WHO WANTS TO LEARN TO CODE. Of course we cover C# syntax but more importantly we introduce the PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS necessary to convert practical problems to solutions in code. You get paid for solving problems everything else is just a technicality.Our focus will be working with Visual Studio on WINDOWS machines. All coding examples are fully compatible with the LATEST Visual Studio Edition (As of 2025 Visual Studio Community 2022) for WINDOWS. Unfortunately they are not MAC compatible.A language like C# is typically learned "in a vacuum," and stripped of potentially distracting visual elements or front-end graphical interfaces. This type of learning process which is considered the standard approach is great for communicating the fundamentals. It allows you to focus on the most important and basic programming concepts you will need to understand, and is often presented through the output of a static, text-based console window. However, learning a language in this console vacuum can also be bland and boring, and can often lead to students becoming disengaged entirely.Students are more likely to remain engaged by learning how to build Windows applications from day one in tandem with learning the C# programming language. Therefore, my lectures are designed to keep you engaged with the process of learning C# fundamentals by presenting them through a series of lessons aimed at creating simple, Windows Form based applications.This course, by jumping right into apps with a Graphical User Interface, allows the learner to feel like they are learning concepts that produce a tangible result. The first section of the course serves as a primer or refresher to get everybody up to speed.This course assumes absolutely nothing about what you already know, and skips no steps in getting you to know Windows Forms. It walks you carefully through every possible feature you can imagine, and has in its source code hundreds of existing projects you can learn from, or expand on to make your own project. It's worth sifting through a dozen mediocre Udemy courses to find a gem like this. It's pretty close to a one stop shop for taking you from knowing nothing about WinForms, to building your own applications.This course has more hours of video instruction (30 + hours) , lectures (200+) and exercises and supplemental resources (400+) than virtually any other Introductory C# course offered on Udemy. All for one low price.Students will be exposed to all the stages in software development and develop problem-solving skills as well as learn the syntax of the C# language.The challenges/applications are drawn from a variety of situations in the home, school and workplace. They address a wide spectrum of interests including:Businesssortingsearchingdata analysisconnecting to a sequential and relational database (SQL)Scienceprobabilistic simulations (using random numbers)deterministic simulations (using concepts from physics and math Plinko Game )Social Studies (Geography)Distance between two cities Table LookupsCountry Telephone codesMathhidden pitfalls of computer arithmetic in real world applicationsfamous mathematical algorithms and their applications (Euclidean Algorithm)solving mazes and puzzles using the concept of recursionCryptography validating codes like SIN (social insurance numbers) , VIN, ISBNcoding and decoding messages using classical encryption techniquesa peek into more advanced techniques (Steganography)Graphicscreating a program that plays a classical memory game on a 4x4 gridcreating applications utilizing drag and drop eventsGaminganimation basicsusing a back buffer (double buffer) to improve flickercreating simple 2d games using keyboard and mouse movement and incorporating sound effectsAI (New Mar 2025)Learn how to integrate the OpenAI API within a Windows Form App by implemeting the OpenAI.NET Library (NuGet Package).which provides a convenient way to access the OpenAI API.My goal is not just to show you how to program, but to help you understand what you are doing, and why you are doing it. But,having said that, I will try to present the material in such a way that we don't get too hung up on rigid standards. Once you get a feel for the material you could certainly get more serious and take a university or college course or take a more advanced online course. Not only do the videos show you how to become a programmer in great detail, but each time an important concept is taught, I offer you a challenge that is designed to help you really understand what you have just learned.You will go away and complete the challenge, and then come back and see the challenge answered and explained in detail in the video, allowing you to check your results! I am online daily to respond to any problems you may encounter. Here's how I will help you to succeed:o Each lecture starts with a list of objectives or speaking noteso Every example covered in the lecture is available for download in the resources section including the objectives or speaking noteso Almost every lecture has a set of Practice problems with full solutions providedo My writing and teaching follows the KISS principle: Keep It Super Simple. I try to stay away from fancy computer terminology and try to teach like am speaking to a brand new user with little to no previous knowledge on the subject matter and I am always available for help replying most times within a day.This is NOT a static course, updates are made several times a month, with new Lectures and Challenge Problems (130 + as of Mar 2025 fully solved) added on a continual basis.Consider this a first step in the process of learning C#, with the Challenge problems reviewing and extending the concepts covered in the course. Below is a sampling of the topics touched upon.InterfacesA Deeper exposure to Collections and Generics(Lists/Queues/Dictionaries/Stacks)TuplesAdvanced OOP conceptsRegexLINQWorking with DateTimeAnd finally please do not judge a book by it's cover don't judge the course by the title or this small description section, if you want to know exactly all the topics covered please go to: COURSE CONTENT Sections Lectures (press the down arrow) This will open up literally thousands of lines of very detailed lecture descriptions leaving no doubt what is and what is not covered.
