In the age of computers, smartphones and digital media, coding is going to be one of the most helpful skills the next generation needs to learn for their future jobs. It's such a focus that schools are starting to introduce it into their curriculum. Younger and younger people are learning how to code 20 years ago, coding was taught only at university. Now, high school students are learning it. In the next decade, even elementary school kids will be learning the basics. What is this book? Functions by Dougy Lee is the second book of a series designed to smoothly segue your child into understanding coding concepts - the stuff that university students wrestle with. With simple language and colorful illustrations, this book makes what feel like very difficult topics easy enough that even kids can learn. Functions introduces a variety of fundamental concepts about programming functions that would lay the foundational building blocks for early growth into computer science. We explore key ideas about the topic of functions: The black box model of functions. What are the components of a function? What does it mean when you provide different inputs into a function? How do you know if two functions are the same? It is a great gift for kids who aspire to make their own websites, build robots or even make games. Have a bit of fun during reading time with your child. Go through with them something that's different to the ordinary baby books of colors and animals.
