Korshub's take

The building blocks before your first language

Instead of jumping straight into syntax, this course backs up a step to teach programming logic itself, the skills you need before you write a single line of real code. It's built around breaking problems into smaller parts using flowcharts and pseudocode, with real code demonstrated in Python.

Who it's for

Absolute beginners taking their very first step toward programming, before committing to a specific language or moving on to data structures and algorithms.

Why it matters

The course frames problem-solving logic as the real foundation of programming, positioning itself as prep work for later study in data structures, algorithms, and competitive programming, skills the description notes are valued by companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Goldman Sachs in technical hiring.

About the instructor

Taught by Prateek Narang, a software engineer and co-founder of Coding Minutes with prior experience at Google, currently working as an instructor and engineer at Scaler.
