-
On a computer, you can do
-
all sorts of things; play games,
-
do your homework,
-
or talk to friends!
-
All these things are done using
-
computer programmes.
-
But what are programmes made from?
-
Computer programs are made out of their
-
own special language called code!
-
"Please walk Mr.Mouse"
-
A computer can't think for itself
-
and you can't talk to it like a person.
-
It needs computer programmes so it knows
-
what to do.
-
"Step 100: Backwards"
-
Code is made out of words and numbers.
-
Sometimes its made from words
-
you already know!
-
You can learn how to put these words
-
in order so the computer understands
-
what to do.
-
"Step 10: Forwards"
-
You can change the numbers and the words
-
to choose what happens in your
-
own programme!
-
There are lots more things you can do;
-
It is your code so you can choose.
-
It's up to you and your imagination!
