Building on the course Programming Fundamentals, this course will teach you how to write code by first planning what your program should do—an important approach for novice and professional programmers. You will learn how to compile and run your program, and then how to test and debug it. This course builds on the Seven Steps you have already learned and provides a framework for systematically testing for problems and fixing them, so you can find and fix problems efficiently.

TOP REVIEWS FROM WRITING, RUNNING, AND FIXING CODE IN C
Very detailed and very helpful. Thanks to the tutors for putting together such a detailed course where nothing seems rushed while at the same time everything is explained.
Great introduction into learning how to develop algorithms, translating them into code (compiling them), testing that code, and debugging that code.
Learnt a lot in this course. Got an exposure on the Git and Unix commands. This course is very good and improved the practical knowledge.
grader is too confusing but the faculty managed to overcome it with their experience. I request the faculty to use alternative methods for ppe tool to not confuse students
