Requirements
Prior to enrolling in this course, participants are expected to possess proficiency in the following areas:
- Comfort with fundamental operating system tasks, such as file management.
- A solid grasp of structured programming basics, including flow control logic, variables and parameters, and function invocation.
- At least three months of hands-on experience developing applications in either graphical or non-graphical environments, or equivalent academic knowledge.
