What you'll learn

This course, Four Semesters of Computer Science in 5 Hours, tackles some big topics in just five hours: algorithms and Big O analysis, recursion, sorting, data structures, and functional programming. Since many developers are self-taught, they can lack the advantages that a formal computer science education provides. The additional theory covered in this course provides useful context to make trade-offs when designing implementations and architectures.
