YOU: are interested in programming but have limited or no experience.

Perhaps you're an artist who wants to work with digital tools including Processing and Arduino.

Perhaps you're a machinist who would like to write software to direct a laser cutter or CAM system.

Maybe you want an edge for you spreadsheet macros.

Or you'd like to start a small business on the web and would like to do some of the work yourself.

The goal of this course will be to give a solid foundation in theory and practice so that you have the context to pick up and use any individual programming environment.
