Programming Fundamentals Training in Dhaka, Bangladesh

This course provides a foundational understanding of programming concepts and problem-solving techniques using a high-level programming language (e.g., Python, Java, or C++). Designed for beginners, it focuses on logical thinking, algorithm development, basic syntax, data handling, control structures, functions, and debugging. It builds the essential skills needed to begin a journey into software development or data science.

Course Agenda

Introduction to Programming

• What is programming?

• Types of programming languages

• Programming life cycle: Design → Code → Test → Debug

• Tools and IDEs for programming

Variables and Data Types

• Declaring and using variables

• Data types: integers, floats, strings, booleans

• Input/output operations

• Type conversion and casting

Operators and Expressions

• Arithmetic, relational, logical operators

• Expression evaluation and precedence

• Writing clean, readable code

Control Structures

• if, if-else, elif (or switch in some languages)

• Loops: for, while, do-while

• Loop control statements: break, continue

Functions and Modularization

• Defining and calling functions

• Function arguments and return values

• Scope and lifetime of variables

• Recursive functions (basic intro)

Working with Strings and Arrays

• String manipulation techniques

• Introduction to arrays/lists

• Iterating through arrays

• Basic operations: search, insert, delete

Introduction to Algorithms

• Understanding algorithms

• Simple sorting and searching algorithms

• Problem-solving strategies (pseudo code, flowcharts)

Debugging and Best Practices

• Syntax vs. logical errors

• Debugging strategies
