Why we need more coders

clem57

Bring computer science to your school. Start with an Hour of Code

Computers are everywhere, but fewer schools teach computer science than 10 years ago. Good news is, we’re on our way to change this. If you heard about the Hour of Code last year, you might know it made history. In one week, 15 million students tried computer science! The Hour of Code is a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics. Sign up to host an Hour of Code this December 8-14 during Computer Science Education Week and help reach 100 million students by the end of the year. Add your school to the map, go to http://hourofcode.com

I tried the Python and thought it may be good for those who want a taste.

    I have not yet had time to participate but 99% I'll do. If you already know well this challenge, why a so long time (from 2012 to the end of 2016?)

     

    Cheers. Enrico
