About this PDF

Move beyond writing small programs and learn to plan, test and improve projects of your own. This 27-page English PDF guide builds on beginner-level coding through ten chapters covering program design, meaningful variables, functions, decisions and loops, storing information, debugging, testing, reading other people's code and growing a project. With clear explanations, worked demonstrations, guided exercises and troubleshooting advice, the book leads towards an independent capstone project. An Advanced Study Record helps learners keep track of their design decisions and test results. Online-safety guidance for young coders is included throughout. Best suited to learners who can already read a short program, use basic input and output, complete a small coding project and trace simple errors. This is the Advanced edition, not an introduction for complete beginners.
