Comments on “A Program is an Idea”
Eugene Wallingford comments on comments received on his recent entry, ‘A Program is an Idea.’
This is timely given recent conversations I’ve had about getting kids interested in programming. Mark Guzdial’s recent discussion of introducing programming is relevant as well.
