Description

Learning a new programming language is challenging and tedious, this is especially true for Rust.When you look at teaching materials related to Rust programming, they always has  hundreds or thousands pages. Then you need to go to page by page,try to understand syntax and semantic info of the language. This way of learning is very fragmented and inefficient. Have you feel frustrated  when you read to the 101th page and find out you nearly forgotten any everything in the previous 100 pages!May be by your pains taking effort, you read all 1000 pages, then very likely that you are in a quantum  state that you are feeling that you seems to familiar and unfamiliar of the topic. You may have a powerful tool but you have no confident about itbecause you never use that tool to build anything, and you are uncertain you can use the tool to build any meaningful thing or not.In this course we will give up the traditional and inefficient way of learning. We will have one stone with two birds. You will from a rookie of Rust programming and blockchain to become and expert of both. We will learn the Rust programming by building a blockchain from scratch. Learning by doing is the most powerful way.Through out this course you will gain expert level skills on two domain, for Rust programming, you will have:Basic rust programming syntax and Common Rust CollectorsEnums, Traits, Structures, Generics, Lifetimes and ClosuresRust Module System, the use of External Crates and Publishing CratesSmart Pointers and Commonly used Data Structures including linklists, trees, BST and doubly linklistAdvance Techniques including macros, Concurrency and Aysnc ProgrammingReal Life Problem where we will learn 13 Real Life Applications in rust from ScratchEfficient programming skills including Design Patterns, Efficient handling of Options, Strings and StructuresTextual Processing and Directory Handlingand for blockchain building, you will have:a hands-on approach to learning about Blockchain concepts, intuition, and implementation. In this course, we'll be utilizing Blockchain technology and Go to develop a money transfer system.Easy to understand: Confused by Blockchain? With much of Blockchain technology explained in complicated technical documents, many people may think of Blockchain as something that's confusing. But Blockchain and the technology underpinning the cryptocurrency, has the potential to revolutionize the platform for future network distribution systems.By taking this course, you will become a fluent in RUST programming and you'll be so good so that you can confidently and professionly code in the language. And  Blockchain is the future and by understanding the concept and actually creating it from scratch, you'll be able to apply Blockchain in the real world.
