程序设计与算法

Programming Fundamentals, Rooted in C

Peking University's specialization builds programming and algorithmic thinking from the ground up using the C programming language, pairing coding practice with underlying computer science concepts like data structures, computer architecture, and computational thinking rather than jumping straight to syntax.

Who It's For

Designed for beginners who want a rigorous, fundamentals-first introduction to programming rather than a quick scripting overview, including students preparing for further computer science study.

What You'll Learn

• C programming language fundamentals
• Data structures and computer architecture
• Computational thinking and programming principles
• Foundational computer science concepts

With over 14,000 learners enrolled, it's a solid choice for anyone who wants their first programming language to come with a real understanding of how computers work underneath it, not just memorized syntax.
