Description



About the Book



A complete, self-contained coding course for absolute beginners. No prior knowledge of coding required - if you can switch on a computer, you can use this book!



Book Synopsis



Start coding now! With this step-by-step guide even total beginners can learn the programming languages Scratch and Python to create games, animations, utilities, and more.

Want to make cool apps and games, but don't know where to begin? This book takes the complexity out of coding. It starts with the basics, taking you through the building blocks of code with Scratch, the simple and colorful visual language that's perfect for newcomers.

Once you can make your own games and projects in Scratch, move on to Python, a slightly more advanced language that offers more flexibility and control. Easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions guide you through creating a dancing cat, virtual puppet, word puzzle, drum machine, and space shooter game. Each project teaches essential skills, so you'll learn as you create.
