Module 1

Welcome to the Online Programming Course organized by Armstrong Computers College | Armstrong IT Training & Software Hub. The first lesson of this course is the Orientation Session. Here, participants will be introduced to:- The structure of the course and what to expect in each module.The languages to be studied (QBasic, C++, Python & JavaScript).The duration, schedule, and cost model of the program.The importance of programming in today’s digital world.How to access support, WhatsApp group discussions, and course materials. This session is meant to help you settle in, understand the roadmap, and get motivated for the learning journey ahead.

Model 2

In this module, we continue our journey into programming by introducing one of the earliest and most widely used beginner-friendly programming languages: QBasic. This curriculum is designed to help participants understand the fundamental principles of programming using QBasic as a foundation. By the end of this module, you will be able to write, run, and debug simple programs while also learning the logical thinking skills necessary to advance into modern programming languages.

I am Prince Armstrong, your instructor at Armstrong Computers College (Armstrong IT Training & Software Hub).
In today’s lesson, we focus on how characters, numbers, and symbols are represented inside the computer system using ASCII Code and how this is linked to binary representation.

Lesson Objectives

1. Understanding ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)

🖊️ Learn what ASCII code is and why it is the universal standard for representing characters in computers.
🖊️ See how every letter, number, and symbol has a unique numerical value assigned to it.

2. Binary Representation of ASCII

🖊️ Convert ASCII values into binary digits step by step.
🖊️ Understand how the computer stores and processes text using binary numbers (0s and 1s).

3. Using Command Prompt (CMD) to Display ASCII Key Codes

🖊️ A practical demonstration of how to use Windows Command Prompt to display and check ASCII key codes.
🖊️ Learn useful commands to view how your keyboard inputs are mapped to ASCII values.
Participants will also be able to download the lesson notes (PDF/Word) for deeper study.
Additionally, watch the accompanying video tutorial to practice the CMD commands in real-time and perform ASCII to binary conversions.
By the end of this lesson, you will understand how characters are stored and processed inside the computer, and you’ll be able to work with ASCI
