商品描述

Kids can take their first steps toward becoming expert computer programmers with this fully updated guide to coding for beginners.

They'll master Scratch 3.0, the brand-new version of the world's most popular coding language for beginners. This will let them discover what makes a computer work while learning how to build their own computer programs and games.

Once they're Scratch experts, it's on to the more complex Python programming language to delve even more deeply into the technology that surrounds us every day. Help Your Kids with Computer Coding uses a simple, visual layout to guide budding programmers step by step through the ins and outs of computer code, from algorithms to variables, even showing them how to find and fix bugs in their code. Before you know it, they'll be creating their own programs from scratch.
It doesn't stop there, though. If Scratch and Python have got them hooked, there's a peek at binary and JavaScript to show them where their coding career could be heading next. This book also lifts the lid on computers and shows young readers the chips and processors that make technology come to life. Fully illustrated with funny and informative graphics, Help Your Kids with Computer Coding makes even the most difficult aspects of coding fun and easy to understand.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

孩子們可以藉由這本全面更新的初學者編程指南,邁出成為專業電腦程式設計師的第一步。

他們將掌握 Scratch 3.0,這是世界上最受歡迎的初學者編程語言的全新版本。這將讓他們在學習如何建立自己的電腦程式和遊戲的同時,發現電腦運作的原理。

一旦他們成為 Scratch 專家,就可以進入更複雜的 Python 編程語言,深入探索我們日常生活中所接觸的技術。幫助孩子學習電腦編程 使用簡單、直觀的佈局,逐步引導初學者了解電腦代碼的方方面面,從算法到變數,甚至教他們如何找到並修復代碼中的錯誤。轉眼間,他們就能從零開始創建自己的程式。
不過這還不是結束。如果 Scratch 和 Python 讓他們著迷,這本書還會簡單介紹二進位制和 JavaScript,讓他們了解未來編程職業的可能方向。這本書還揭示了電腦的內部結構,向年輕讀者展示使技術變得生動的晶片和處理器。幫助孩子學習電腦編程 以有趣且具資訊性的圖形全彩插圖,讓即使是最困難的編程概念也變得有趣且易於理解。
