Coding at Home: Wednesday, 32nd March

Welcome to day seventy four of coding! You’ve now got hair down to your ankles, all graying, the length of your fingernails makes it tough to type, and we’re now on Advanced Autolayout for iOS Applications. Ready to start?

The live stream is on https://www.twitch.tv/thecodehub today at 1pm, Irish time, that’s no April Fools’ joke.

Variables: Getting Set Up

We’re going to start off today with the Learning Variables app, which you can download for free from the App Store for Mac or iPad (go to that link to jump to either store).

That will introduce us to the concept of variables and we’ll have a bit of fun building stories with those variables.

After a little bit of that, we’ll move back to the Everyone Can Code Puzzles book. This chapter is a big step up from previous chapters. We leave behind Learn to Code 1, which is the playground we’ve used so far, and leap into Learn to Code 2.

We also might use the Spirals playground and Answers playgrounds.

You can find them in the More Playgrounds bar at the bottom of Swift Playgrounds. Answers appears in the Starting Points section, and Spirals appears in the Challenges section.

So make sure you’re all set up for 1pm, Irish time! See you then!
