Frequently asked questions
Previous experience with programming, preferably using an object-oriented language like C++ or Python, is very helpful. The course does cover a few basic programming concepts to make sure everyone has the same level of background knowledge but individuals who have never programmed may find it a bit too fast-paced.
It's a good idea to take the courses in the sequence shown on the specialization landing page. This is because the material builds on itself.
