The Ultimate Path is the highest path among three of Young Programmer's Paths. It gives complete and the deepest coverage of the computer science knowledge and skills. The path consists of the following courses:
Math for Computer Science
Python Programming Foundations
C++ Programming Foundations
Algorithms and Data Structures
Operating Systems
Discrete Mathematics
Physics for Computer Science
Many of these courses, like the Operating systems and Discrete Mathematics courses, are a mandatory part of any university computer science and engineering undergraduate programs. Some of them, like High-Performance Computing and Digital Design are sometimes included in graduate programs. The importance of the first 6 courses is explained in Basic Path and Advanced Path sections as they actually form those paths. The central courses in the Ultimate Path are related to system programming using the C++ language.
Duration: 110 classes
Tuition fee: AED 1000 per 12 class + 2 free classes
