I started this set of tutorials, example code, problem sets, solutions, and projects when some coworkers requested I teach them some fundamentals. I started creating the material in this repo as a set of lunch-and-learns that would teach some basics in programming that could apply to any job, and would start from a position that even those with no programming experience could learn. The skills and techniques are useful to everyday programming in a variety of roles in a tech/manufacturing office environment. The tutorials in this course will provide benefit for roles in IT, operations and development, engineers, manufacturing, finance, program management, and more.
This project on SourceForge is a mirror duplicate of the original repository at https://github.com/dbowmans46/PracticalProgramming, due to the GitHub webpage being blocked at my work. I intend to keep the GitHub repo and this repo synced and up-to date.
