About this course

In this case study, you will develop your skills in using generative AI for pair programming. Taking the mindset of a novice developer, you will team up with an AI to solve a problem using Python. You and the AI will be working to generate code for the Basta Fazoolin’ project on Codecademy. Once you complete the case study, you will be ready to use the AI as a programming partner for work on personal projects.

Skills you'll gain

  • Create effective prompts to prepare an AI to be a pair programming partner.

  • Prompt the AI to act as a driver in the driver-navigator style of pair programming.

  • Prompt the AI to act as a navigator in the driver-navigator style of pair programming.

Reviews from learners

  • The progress I have made since starting to use codecademy is immense! I can study for short periods or long periods at my own convenience - mostly late in the evenings.
