The computer is an integral
part of everyone’s life nowadays. Still, not so many people understand how this
powerful machine actually works. Since getting my first computer in the middle
1990s and starting browsing the Internet, I was wondering what kind of
mechanisms make this magic happen.
During my undergraduate studies,
I took several basic programming courses, but never received the answer to the
question above. Those courses discussed lots of technical terms related to the
computer sciences, and I even remembered some of them; however, nobody cared to
explain the working process of the computer so I would be able to get it.
Last weeks, I was searching
for coding-related learning materials for my soon-to-start IDT career in
Kazakhstan. And I was lucky to find an amazing interactive manual that is written
for people who are not very familiar with coding, but willing to understand it.
That is to say, I found the coding book of my dream, and it is called What Is Code? While interacting with the book, I experienced lots of “aha moments” that
never came to my head before.
What Is Code? is a real treasure
for anyone interested in the topic of coding. If you are not one of them, you
still may find it to be interesting to go to see how this interactive web-based
learning tool works. I promise, you will be impressed.
Here is a short video from
the introduction to What Is Code?
