Python is a wonderful language for teaching beginners to program. It is great to see a kid-focused Python book!

Jeffrey Elkner, Educator

If you teach your child one thing, teach her the golden rule. If you teach her two things, then teach her the golden rule and computer programming. This book is all you need for the latter.

Warren and Carter start simply, at the beginning, and take kids or adults all the way to making fun 2D graphical games and simulations. Python is my first choice for a real programming language for new programmers, and using this book is a great way to learn it. Ive been recommending this book to my students since the First Edition came out.

Preface

The preface is that part at the beginning of a book that you skip over to get to the good stuff, right? Sure, you can skip over it if you want (hey, youre the one turning the pages), but who knows what you might miss.... Its not very long, so maybe you should give it a look, just in case.

What is programming?

Very simply, programming means telling a computer to do something. Computers are dumb machines. They dont know how to do anything. You have to tell them everything, and you have to get all the details right.

But if you give them the right instructions they can do many wonderful and - photo 4

But if you give them the right instructions, they can do many wonderful and amazing things.

Word Box

An instruction is a basic command you give to a computer, usually to do a single, very specific thing.

A computer program is made up of a number of instructions. Computers do all the great things they do today because a lot of smart programmers wrote programs or software to tell them how. Software just means a program or collection of programs that run on your computer, or sometimes on another computer yours is connected to, like a web server.

Whats Going on in There?

Computers think using lots and lots and LOTS of electrical circuits At the - photo 5

Computers think using lots and lots and LOTS of electrical circuits. At the most basic level, these circuits are switches that are either ON or OFF.

Engineers and computer scientists use 1 and 0 to stand for ON and OFF. All these 1s and 0s are a kind of code called binary. Binary really just means two states. The two states are ON and OFF, or 1 and 0.

Did you know: binary digit = bit.

Pythona language for us and the computer

All computers use binary inside. But most people dont speak binary very well. We need an easier way to tell the computer what we want it to do. So people invented programming languages. A computer programming language lets us write things in a way we can understand, and then translates that into binary for the computer to use.

There are many different programming languages. This book will teach you how to use one of those languagesone called Pythonto tell the computer what to do.
