Computer Coding for Kids, A Unique Step-By-Step Visual Guide, Vorderman C., 2019.

   This book introduces all the essential concepts needed to understand computer coding. Fun projects throughout put these ideas into practice. Everything is broken down into small chunks so that it’s easy to follow and understand.




What is a computer program?
A computer program is a set of instructions that a computer follows to complete a task. "Coding", or "programming", means writing the step-by-step instructions that tell the computer what to do.

Computer programs are everywhere.
We are surrounded by computer programs. Many of the devices and gadgets we use each day are controlled by them. These machines all follow step-by-step instructions written by a computer programmer.

Computers might seem very smart, but they are actually just boxes that follow instructions very quickly and accurately. As
intelligent humans, we can get them to carry out different tasks by writing programs, or lists of instructions.
