Practical Programming Courses
I want to learn some real hands on programming compsci courses, similar to Math 1MP3. I know computer science is the study of the theory behind programming, but I want to actually learn pretty much how to code. Just looking for some suggestions or some for some past experience on recommendations on courses.

GEOG 3TG3 and 4GA3 are both heavily R-based, and practical. in 4GA3 you also use ArcGIS Pro.

There's some MATLAB in MATH 3MA3.

If you take econometrics with Youngki Shin, he apparently does everything in R.

I know some might not consider R, ArcGIS or MATLAB to be programming, but whatever.

The desire to learn programming is the desire for which I and other people can praise.
