From the course: Learning C#
What you should know
- [Instructor] There are some concepts that you should already be familiar with before you start this course. So let's take a few moments and review what basic knowledge you should already have. First, this course is not intended for people with no programming experience. I'm going to assume that you have some basic foundational knowledge of programming. Now you don't need to be an expert, but I do expect that you are familiar with basic concepts, like functions and variables and other core parts of programming. And because C# is a fully object-oriented language, you should also be familiar with object-oriented programming concepts, like classes and inheritance. Now, if you need to get to speed with these areas, then I suggest starting with a couple of other courses before you take this one, such as "Programming Foundations: Fundamentals" and "Programming Foundations: Object-Oriented Design." Both of these courses will give you a great introduction to programming and you'll get a lot more out of this course as a result. You should also be familiar with using a text editor or an integrated development environment, as well as the terminal or command line program on your computer. I'm going to be using Visual Studio Code in this course, and if you want to use it along with me then you can download it from this link. It's not required. You can technically use whatever editor you like best, but I happen to really like VS Code, so I'm going to be using it. Okay, so that's pretty much it for the prerequisites for this course. Once you're comfortable with these subjects, then you are ready to get started.
