The Wonderful World of Coding

A special report by G. Foley

Ever wonder when you’re playing a video game, ‘How is it all strung together?’. Well, look no further than THIS article. Coding is the process of transforming ideas, solutions, and instructions into the language that the computer can understand – that is, binary-machine code. Coding is how humans can talk with computers. Before I tell you about the magnificence of coding, I am going to teach you the 4 steps of creating software.

Step one: Plan the purpose of your software. Pretty straightforward step.

Step two: Design your software. Create the attributes that you’re going to use in your software.

Step three: Code your software. Put those attributes to work.                                                  

Step four (optional): Release it to the masses and wait for the MONEY$ to start rolling in. 

Now, the world of coding is awesome. It’s so advanced, that I haven’t learnt it all yet. But at the time I’m typing this (which is before you are reading this), I’m going to have my next lesson this afternoon. But I’m going to tell you all about what I know so far: There are two ways to code, block-based and text-based. Block-based is easier to code, while text-based is more advanced. 

Wish me luck on all my future lessons.
