Product Description

Learning to code has never been easier than with this essential guide to computer programming for beginners. By using a visual method to break code into small chunks, this book brings essential skills within reach.

The introduction explains terms like algorithm, variable, string, and loop and looks at the many coding languages that are out there so you can choose the right language for you. Individual chapters explore the different languages with each chapter divided into a series of practical programming projects that include all the most popular applications, such as building websites, creating games, and designing mobile apps. You'll learn to think like a programmer by breaking down a problem into parts before turning those parts into lines of code. Short, easy-to-follow steps then show you, piece by piece, how to build a complete program. There are also challenges for you to tackle on your own so that you can build confidence before moving on. Written by a team of expert coders and coding teachers, the Beginner's Step-by-Step Coding Course is the ideal way to start writing your own computer code.
