About this title

Synopsis

Awesome Algorithms and Creative Coding explores how computers work and explains how to think in a logical way. The bright and engaging design guides readers through clear explanations of binary code, simple algorithms and computer language. With real-life examples readers learn about the development of coding using simple decision making processes. Looks at programming languages that readers can use themselves, including Scratch and LOGO.
