About

Kotlin is a programming language developed by JetBrains since 2010 and it is Google's recommended programming language for Android Application Development. In this series, you will learn how to program in Kotlin, from beginner to pro, and build a strong foundation moving into Android Native Mobile Application Development, as well as general programming. You DO NOT require any prior experience in programming to register for this series.

View Profile

Hey there! My name is Nishant. 👋🏽 I am a sophomore college student majoring in Computer Science. I have worked on Android and Web applications alongside hardware-level stuff like Assembly and Compilers. I am super hyped to tutor and help learners in CS and Math! I love rock music: Queen and Bon Jovi Fan; and I play the synthesizer.

Thu 7:00 AM - 8:00 AM UTCJan 27, 7:00 AM - 8:00 AM UTC

** Attendance is compulsory ** We will be reviewing all that we have learnt so far and put it to use in solving problems. The problems will include basic syntax, variables, conditions and loops. I will demonstrate a couple a couple programs to provide you the basic technique and assign problems that build on the foundation of the technique. Your task would be to solve the programming problems using the given technique (or otherwise).
