Hour of Code Recap

UntitledLast week we spent our computer graphics class to do Hour of Code. Here’s what I did.

I finished the Karel Hour of Code exercise. Through this course I learned how to command a character, Karel. I typed in and ordered the code, and also made a new function (I made a function for Karel to turn right since he could only turn left). I can use this experience in the future to create an app by myself or code anything. I also learned that typing in the exact code is very important. For example, if you forget to type it with a capital letter the computer will not understand the code.

I learned how to select and display a particular data from a table.  I thought this application is more practical than JavaScript. This could be very useful for the future since you can use this skill to organise a group more easily.

 

 

 

Hour of Code

We are doing Hour of Code in Computer Graphics class as December 7-13 is the international Computer Science Education Week!

Through this project, I would like to learn computer programming like making games. It is great to be able to command your own character and make the rules by yourself. JavaScript is the programming language that is likely to be used to design a game. In Hour of Code there are five courses you can use to learn JavaScript.
