Let’s Get Coding

Book Description

Inspiring Projects for EASY coding in Snap!, Scratch and Python Inspiring Projects for EASY coding in Snap!, Scratch and Python These are coding languages commonly used in schools across the world. This book is an introduction to computer programming using the most useful (and free) programs available, combined with the new inspiration and excitement of micro computing available right now! It is an introduction to more complex computing at grade 4 level upwards. At home the purchase of a raspberry pi will enable all of these programs to run without any installation as SCRATCH and PYTHON is available on all versions of the micro computer. SNAP! is best suited for larger laptops or desktop computers and is almost identical to SCRATCH, but it has an advantage of being a very good alternative for laptop or desktops. It’s also entirely cloud based, so no installation required. PYTHON requires an IDE to work. The one we use is called THONNY (which is also installed on the raspberry pi micro computer). Available for Mac/PC and Linux. The author has made these programs ‘cross-platform’ and has used standard SCRATCH ‘blocks’ and Python code that can be used on any (Mac/PC/Linux) computer with Python 3. Each page is self-contained, with notes followed by a Python example. This book contains TWENTY projects! Each one follows a 4 page pattern: Page 1: A brief introduction to the coding project. Page 2: The block coding for SCRATCH (or SNAP!) Page 3: The Python code page (based on same project). Page 4: Hack your own code (with easy options).

在Snap！、Scratch和Python中轻松编码的灵感项目灵感项目在Snap！、Scratch和Python中轻松编码这些是世界各地学校常用的编码语言。这本书是计算机编程的介绍，使用最有用的(和免费的)程序，结合现在可用的微型计算的新灵感和兴奋！它是对四年级以上更复杂的计算的介绍。在家里，购买树莓pi将使所有这些程序无需任何安装即可运行，因为Scratch和Python在所有版本的微型计算机上都可用。快拍！最适合较大的笔记本电脑或台式电脑，与Scratch几乎相同，但它的优势在于是笔记本电脑或台式机的一个非常好的替代品。它也完全基于云，所以不需要安装。Python需要使用IDE才能工作。我们使用的是THONNY(它也安装在覆盆子圆周率微型计算机上)。可用于Mac/PC和Linux。作者已经制作了这些跨平台的程序，并使用了标准的Scratch和可以在任何装有Python3的(Mac/PC/Linux)计算机上使用的Python代码。每一页都是独立的，后面跟着一个Python示例。这本书包含了二十个项目！每一个都遵循一个4页的模式：第1页：编码项目的简要介绍。第2页：Scratch(或SNAP！)的块编码第3页：Python代码页(基于同一项目)。第4页：修改您自己的代码(使用简单的选项)。
