Free Course

Online Course
31 January to 31 December '19

Course Overview

This course is designed to help the 1st year students. The course will cover fundamentals of programming with C language. The course follows syllabus of the subject Programming for Problem Solving in AKTU.

Course Features

  • The course will cover all of the theoretical chapters as articles which you can read from anywhere without the load of carrying books.

  • The course is divided in different sections based on the unit as listed in the AKTU syllabus.

  • Every section will have a separate set of articles, MCQs, and programming problems based on the topics discussed in that unit.

  • The course will also cover the solutions to previous year question papers which will be helpful during semester exams.
