Computer-Free Coding

Bugs can sneak into the most unexpected places – even into coding! Young coders will don their bug extermination gear in this introduction to debugging! This completely computer-free book explores key concepts such as determining, measuring, checking, and correcting errors in code. Friendly robot illustrations draw in even readers who are reluctant to learn coding. Fun puzzles and games create an interactive reading experience, while clear, accessible language breaks complex ideas down into reader-friendly, manageable chunks. This engaging book is sure to get readers excited about debugging – one of the most crucial aspects of coding!

Words are powerful things – even in code! In this engaging book, readers will learn the fundamental principles of repetition and looping. They'll look at how language handles different ways of repeating code, including "while," "for," "repeat," and "until" clauses. They'll explore key concepts such as functions, subroutines, and nested loops. Puzzles and games create a fun, interactive learning experience, and friendly robot illustrations engage both budding coders and readers who are reluctant to learn about coding. Simple language breaks difficult concepts down into reader-friendly explanations. This completely computer-free guide to repetition makes learning about coding accessible and fun!

It is most logical for young coders to learn about Boolean algebra! This interactive book introduces readers to the concept of logic, which lies at the heart of coding. They'll learn about "if" and "until" clauses, arithmetic functions, and decision-making. Budding coders will engage with these crucial topics through fun puzzles and games, and adorable robot illustrations draw in even readers who are reluctant to learn coding. This completely computer-free look at logic is accessible to all readers, making it a valuable addition to any library.

Code it, test it, cache it, drop it! This comprehensive book introduces readers to everything they need to know about data. Accessible language provides easy-to-understand explanations for crucial concepts. Puzzles, games, and robot illustrations create a fun, interactive learning experience that will draw in both beginning coders and readers who are reluctant to learn about coding. They'll explore types of data including numbers, strings, and arrays. Readers will learn how data is stored in computer and in codes, as well as key vocabulary terms such as memory, cache, ram, disk, and flash. They'll also see the difference between constants and variables, and other important science and technology topics, all while having fun!
