Learn to Program with Scratch

Description

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 sortHands-on projects will challenge you to create an Ohm's law simulator, draw intricate patterns, program sprites to mimic line-following robots, create arcade-style games, and more! Each chapter is packed with detailed explanations, annotated illustrations, guided examples, lots of color, and plenty of exercises to help the lessons stick. Learn to Program with Scratch is the perfect place to start your computer science journey, painlessly.Uses Scratch 2 Review: Is it original copy? - The book delivered is in B&W inside, (SAMPLE PHOTOS ATTACHED) not as displayed in product pages. Is it original copy or not? Let's be judged by desertcart COMUNITY. Returned on first sight. Seller were DISHA BOOKS. The original book is best for learning and I'm willing to order again if get assured of delivery in original. Review: Excelente libro de programación de Scratch - Se trata de un libro excelente para adentrarse en el mundo de la programación mediante el lenguaje visual de Scratch, ya que contiene numerosa información y detallada con muchas imágenes. Aunque esté escrito en inglés, las imágenes lo clarifican todo. Además, el nivel de inglés exigido para su lectura no es elevado y hoy en día hay numerosos traductores gratuitos que pueden ayudar a entenderlo a las personas que no sepan nada de inglés.
