Learn to Program with Scratch: A Visual Introduction to Programming with Games, Art, Science, and Math - Softcover
Synopsis
Scratch is a fun, free, beginner-friendly programming environment where you connect blocks of code to build programs. While most famously used to introduce kids to programming, Scratch can make computer science approachable for people of any age. Rather than type countless lines of code in a cryptic programming language, why not use colorful command blocks and cartoon sprites to create powerful scripts?
In Learn to Program with Scratch, author Majed Marji uses Scratch to explain the concepts essential to solving real-world programming problems. The labeled, color-coded blocks plainly show each logical step in a given script, and with a single click, you can even test any part of your script to check your logic. You'll learn how to:
- Harness the power of repeat loops and recursion
- Use if/else statements and logical operators to make decisions
- Store data in variables and lists to use later in your program
- Read, store, and manipulate user input
- Implement key computer science algorithms like a linear search and bubble sort
