Introduction to Visual Programming Language

By definition, Scratch is simply a visual programming language, backed up with the provision of a rich studying window to people of diverse ages. It allows you to create projects that are interactive and rich in media, like story animations, book reporting, scientific projects, simulations and games. Emphatically, you would run through some practical processes of setting up some games in this scratch user guide.

In broader terms,

Its visual programming environment allows you to do more research on key knowledge areas;

It comes with the provision of multimedia tools that you can use to make stunning applications;

It enhances the promotion of many problem-solving skills that are key in diverse ways of life, and not just programming;

It allows you to refine your thinking, and trace the flow of your programs, thus the scratch window comes with the provision of instant feedback, giving you the chance to run through your logic easily and quickly.

It makes the concepts of computer science accessible and real;

It promotes learning motivation, and enhances the thirsts for knowledge;

The scratch programming language allows hands-on, self-channeled learning through exploration and discovery. (Stopped)

The beauty of being a programmer is that you can create, think about it first, come up with an idea, and then make use of the keyboard for some few hours, and a new software project comes to life. Like any new skill, programming involves practice, which allows you to reflect on the concepts and experiment with different techniques until you master them, and then moving on to learn something new.
