Python Lessons for All Ages! All Levels Welcome! Beginners, Intermediates, Professionals!
What is this AI thing everybody is talking about these days? Do you want to understand technology at a deeper level? Are you interested in how common applications fundamentally operate? Would you like to improve your logical and analytical skills (not to mention endurance and patience)? Learning to code - a phrase that is all too popular nowadays. Still, dealing with programming languages is kind of inevitable in every sector. And by becoming fluent in Python or AI techniques you broaden the spectrum of your possibilities, in academia, in the job market and in your personal life too! There is simply no better language than Python to begin with on your exciting coding journey. And there is also no better way of doing that than by having someone personal to ask questions to. This way you not only don't have to waste time and effort on a stupid typo, but you're also less likely to give up. Effort * Encouragement = Success!

C++ Object Oriented Programming -- Learn from the industry professional having practical experience
C++ language is a superset of the ‘C’ language and was initially known as “C with Classes”. In "C" operator ++ is used to increment the value by 1. That means to the language ‘C’, developers have added some extra features (Object Oriented Programming) and hence named as C++. This Object Oriented concept reduces the complexity in programming and it is easier to identify and resolve any error in the program. I'll be starting from the scratch thereby strengthening your concepts and helping you to master this language. I am providing you a brief summary of our course which we generally follow but that doesn't mean that I am bound to just this much content. In case you have any doubt for any other specific topic related to the subject, you could always come up to me or you need any help in your assignments or projects, you are always welcome. Here is a brief summary of our course : • How C++ differs from C • Variables Declaration • Function overloading • Optional Parameters • Reference Variables • Operator overloading • Basics of Console Input and Output • Constant Pointers • Dynamic Memory Allocation • Overview of OOPs Principles • Introduction to classes & objects • Creation & destruction of objects • Data Members • Member Functions • this Pointer • Constructor &Destructor • Static class member • Friend class and functions • Namespace • Types of Inheritance • Down casting and up casting • Function overriding • Virtual functions • Destructor overriding • What is Polymorphism • Pure virtual functions • Virtual Base Class • File Stream • Text File Handling • Binary File Handling • Error handling during file operations • Overloading << and >> operators • Exception Handling • Templates Apart from these , we'll be covering basic concepts of "if - else statement" "for, while and do-while loops" In case you have any query, feel free to contact me Give yourself a chance for a better future All the best

Software Development, Algorithms, Backend, FrontEnd
Hi All, I'm Madalina, 27 years old software developer. I finished Computer Science high school and university in Romania and Hungary. Working as a full-time backend Java software developer in the past 5 years and full stack (backend + front-end) in the past 2 years. I have experience in teaching and training since 2012. During the lessons the used language for back-end is Java. For front-end HTML, CSS, AngularJS. For fastening up the learning process a personal laptop for the students in the intermediate group, would be optimal. For this purpose I start 3 teams: 1. Beginners : Primary school students or persons interested to have some basic concepts and terminology regarding software development: searching and sorting algorithms, variables, parameters, function overriding, pseudo language, functions, procedures, data structures, pure HTML and CSS. 2. Intermediate: concepts of dns servers and lookup, frameworks definitions and introduction, SQL queries, Hibernate framework, query and processing database objects in Java, http, web services, JSON format, SpringBoot, unit testing JUnit, full stack approach, HTML, CSS and introduction to Angular JS. 3. Advanced : Group for students in the first and second year of university, with a full stack approach. Already familiar with the knowledge of an intermediate student. During the lessons a brief introduction to Java frameworks, project delivery, project management frameworks Agile Scrum and Lean, continuous delivery Jenkins, SpringBoot + AngularJs, implementation of website, database handling, login form, security. Regards, Madalina

Sonic Pi - programming and Music Orchestratio. as an art form
## Code the Beat: Make Music by Typing, Not Clicking Ever wonder what it'd be like to *build* music from the ground up, not just play it? Forget clicking through menus; imagine writing code that turns into sound. That's the magic of Sonic Pi. It started as a way to get kids excited about coding, but it's become a playground for anyone who wants to mess with music in a totally different way. You type instructions, and boom—beats, melodies, weird soundscapes, whatever you can dream up. Here's the cool part: you're not stuck with a pre-made track. You change the code *while it's playing*. Want to speed it up? Tweak the pitch? Throw in a crazy synth line? Just type it, and it happens. It's like playing an instrument made of code. You don't need to be a coding whiz or a music theory genius to get started. Sonic Pi's pretty friendly, and there are plenty of people online sharing tips and tricks. Plus, there are classes popping up everywhere that'll walk you through the basics. People are using it for all sorts of music, from electronic dance stuff to ambient soundscapes and even those retro video game sounds. It's not just about making tunes; it's about experimenting, trying things out, seeing what happens when you push a few buttons and type a few lines. What really makes Sonic Pi special is the community. You'll find people swapping code, sharing sounds, and even throwing "algoraves" where they code music live. It's a place where you can learn, create, and connect with others who are just as curious about the weird and wonderful world of coding music. So, if you're looking for a way to get creative, try something new, and maybe even make some music that nobody's ever heard before, give Sonic Pi a shot. You might just surprise yourself.

UI/UX Design and Frontend Development bootcamp for the web
I will teach you how to design and develop great user experiences (UX) for your website or applications (web and mobile). My teaching is very flexible. But it make sense to start with key elements of a great UX, learn about HTML, CSS (TailwindCSS, SCSS, SASS), Javascript (Angular, React, NextJS). There is no fixed plan, because technology differs from project to project. A web application can be statically generated (SSG) or full-stack (frontend and backend). I have experience building both. My aim is to teach the topics which are the most beneficial for the student. Looking forward!
