computer programming

In this day and age, software engineers truly make the world go round. These professionals create all kinds of technical products, including the programs needed to make computers operate, the apps used on smartphones, websites on the internet, and the entertainment enjoyed by gamers. The best part about this career choice? The need for software engineers just keeps growing every year. In this title, readers will get an understanding of what this job entails, how to prepare for it (including training and education), and what a typical day as a software engineer is really like.

Provides instructions for creating projects using the computer program called Scratch.

All pieces of hardware and software involve multiple systems and features working together to complete tasks. Therefore, innovations in computer science require breaking down large goals into small, manageable parts. This book shows readers how achieving programmatic goals is not so different from achieving personal goals, elaborating on the mechanics of computer programming in an easy-to-follow way.

Dr. One-Zero won't stop until the whole town--no, the whole world--embraces the "true happiness" found in his poisonous potion, Green Pop. And now that he has the Turtle of Light, he's virtually unstoppable. There's one weapon that can defeat him: another Turtle of Light. Unfortunately, they can only be found in another dimension! To open a portal to this new world, Hopper, Eni, and Josh's coding skills will be put to the test.
