Join us live today at 9:45am, Irish/UK time for another follow-along coding session!
For context (and last week’s recording), you can visit our mini-site: Day Six: Track the gems
We follow Apple’s Quick Start to Code with Swift PDF (and skip a few days, for now), which is why Thursday is Day Six.
Unplugged
Okay, take a seat. Today we’re going to break down (not breakdance) our favourite dances. What is the name of the dance? What’s the duration?
Steve helps us to learn a little about variables when we consider what elements make up our real-world bouncing and bopping around.
Coding
We learn about variables today and have to dive into the Learn to Code 2 playground. This is a big step, and a HUGE new coding concept to learn.
We’ll use variables to keep track of the gems that Hopper collects as we solve the puzzles in today’s session.
