Take coding from theory to practice with our Computer Science Principles Labs. This hands-on lab gives you a chance to experiment with JavaScript, one of the most popular languages for web programming. JavaScript's ease of use, cross-platform compatibility, and many free coding tools make it a great choice for new programmers. Building on the lessons in the Computer Science Principles series, this course shows how to apply concepts such as variables, functions, conditions, loops, and arrays directly to the JavaScript language. Download the free exercise files and follow along with series instructor Doug Winnie as he breaks down the syntax and shows JavaScript in action. (less)

A truly versatile language, Java is used for programming web, mobile, and desktop applications for a variety of platforms. This hands-on lab is designed to build on the concepts in the Computer Science Principles series. It shows how to apply concepts such as variables, functions, conditions, loops, and collections to the Java language. You also get an introduction to the basics of object-oriented programming (OOP) in Java.

C# is a versatile programming language used in many different ways. It powers many Windows and .NET apps for desktop, tablet, mobile, and web applications. Coders and programmers also use C# in cross-platform development, using Unity for games and using Xamarin for mobile apps. This course is designed to show how universal programming concepts specifically apply and work in the C# language. Programming expert Doug Winnie starts by sharing the history of C# to give you context into its purpose and beneficial uses. Then he walks through a sample of code showing how to run a program using the Visual Studio IDE. After warming up with a sample, he dives into working with values, variables, methods, and custom functions. Next, he shows how to capture values input by site users, managing different variable types, building compound conditional tests, and using loops with arrays. In the final five videos, he covers the basics of object-oriented programming including classes, objects, and permissions. (less)
