This course features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) using C# and .NET Core. As a beginner-friendly course, it guides you through the essential concepts like inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction, equipping you with the fundamental knowledge to write efficient, reusable, and scalable code. By following practical demonstrations and engaging exercises, you will build a solid foundation in C# programming and .NET Core development. The course begins with setting up your environment, including installing .NET Core SDK and Visual Studio Code. Once the setup is complete, you will dive into understanding the core concepts of programming and OOP basics. From there, you’ll explore key OOP principles such as inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction with clear, real-world examples. The course will culminate with you applying these concepts in a hands-on mini-app project, enabling you to build a small application and solidify your learning. This course is perfect for beginners who want to gain a strong understanding of C# and OOP concepts. Whether you're just starting in programming or looking to expand your skills, this course will help you learn step-by-step, from the basics to more advanced concepts. No prior programming experience is required, but familiarity with basic computer operations will be helpful. By the end of the course, you will be able to confidently implement core object-oriented programming concepts such as inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction in real-world applications.
