This book is for students who are already familiar with Snap - its various commands, and its user interface - and basic CS concepts such as, variables, conditional statements, looping, and so on. The book attempts to teach students how to "design" programs through a series of challenging and interesting projects on science simulation, games, puzzles, and math problems.Snap is a powerful language and offers access to lots of advanced ideas of Computer Science some of which are appropriate even for a college-level programming course.The book is organized as a series of independent Snap projects - each of which describes how to design and build an interesting and challenging Snap program. Each project progresses in stages - from a simple implementation to increasingly complex versions. You can take up these projects in any order you like, although I have tried to arrange them in an increasing order of challenge. Programming is a powerful tool that can be applied to virtually any field of human endeavor. The author has tried to maintain a good diversity of applications in this book. You will find the following types of projects: -Arcade games-Puzzle games-Simulations-Math games-Geometric designs-Optical illusions**Learn the concepts through application**As the experts will tell you, concepts are really understood and internalized when you apply them to solve problems. The purpose of this book is to help you apply Snap and CS concepts to solve interesting and challenging programming problems. Every chapter lists, at the very start, the Snap and CS concepts that you will apply while building that project.** Learn the design process **Besides these technical concepts, you will also learn the "divide and conquer" approach of problem-solving. This is a fancy term for the technique of breaking down a bigger problem into many smaller problems and solving them separately one by one.You will learn a bit about a program design technique called "object-oriented thinking". Without going into its gory details such as classes and inheritance, the book tries to show you how you can view each program as a collection of independent objects that cooperate to deliver a coherent experience.You will also learn the "iterative design process" for designing programs. This is another fancy name that describes the idea that something complex can be designed in a repeated idea -> implement -> test cycle, such that in each cycle we add a little more complexity.Finally, you will learn a bit of "project management". Project management helps you undertake a project - such as painting your house, celebrating your sister's birthday, or creating a complex computer program - and complete it in a reasonable time, with reasonable effort, and with reasonable quality. It involves things such as planning tasks, tracking their progress, etc. When you undertake the programming projects in this book, you will learn some of these project management techniques.** Audience for the book **The book is intended for students who are already familiar with Snap. The level of challenge is tuned for high-school students and above, but middle-school students who have picked up all the concepts in an introductory course might also be able to enjoy the projects presented in this book. The book would be a great resource for teachers who teach Snap programming. They could use the projects to teach advanced tricks of programming and to show how complex programs are designed.Finally, the book is for anyone who wants to get the wonderful taste of the entertaining and creative aspect of Computer Programming.** Hardware and software **You can do all your Snap programming work online by creating your own account at http: //snap.berkeley.edu.

Who this book is for:This book is perfect for students who are keen to learn CS concepts and have no prior programming background. In addition to learning a lot of Computer Science concepts, you will do a series of interesting projects and programming activities. You will work on a few big projects, and you will also write many small "practice programs". You will learn and apply concepts of computer programming and computer science when you write these programs. Snap! language:The choice of programming language is critical to achieve the intended objectives of teaching CS to beginners. In this book we use the Snap! programming language. Snap! is an entertaining and powerful language, and yet it is easy to learn. It is known as a "low floor and high ceiling" language - it allows the learner to build his/her vocabulary without getting mired in the complexities of syntax and grammar.There is a lot of material on Snap! Programming on the Internet, including videos, online courses, Snap! projects, and so on. This book is meant to offer a more organized and tutorial-like treatment to learning Snap!. It is also focused more on learning CS concepts rather than Snap! itself.Why learn programming:The idea of using computer programming as a medium for learning is rapidly gaining acceptance. The benefits of learning programming and computer science concepts well before college - even in elementary grades - are well-understood. Here is a list of some of the amazing things that happen when young people engage in computer programming:- Students become active and creative learners, because they explore ideas through a hands-on activity with an infinitely powerful tool.- They learn to think about and analyze their own thinking, because that is the only way to program computers.- They learn to solve complex problems by breaking them into smaller sub-problems.- They learn a new way of thinking (called "computational" thinking).- In the world of programming, answers are not simply "right" or "wrong"; this prepares a child's mindset for real-life problems.- Their learning processes are transformed from acquiring facts to thinking creatively and analytically.How the book is organized:The book is organized as a series of units - each containing a bunch of CS concepts and associated programming activities. Typically, each unit also includes a major programming project that helps you practice all the concepts learnt till then.

About this bookIn this book, we are going to focus on the "Pen" feature of the popular Snap! programming language. Henceforth we will refer to "Snap!" simply as "Snap".It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the basic features of Snap, such as, motion commands and looping. There is a lot of material on Snap Programming on the Internet, including videos, online courses, Snap projects, and so on. We highly recommend the book "Learn CS Concepts with Snap" by one of the authors, if you are a complete newcomer to Snap, or if you wish to brush up on your concepts.However, as you will discover, you can become an accomplished "Pen Artist" (or "Turtle Programmer") without having to be an expert Snap programmer. We have explained relevant Snap commands and concepts wherever required.Who this book is for: This book is expected to allow anyone to experience the magic of Turtle programming. You can read and understand the concepts presented, try out sample programs, and exercise your creativity by trying out the exercises. There are plenty of examples presented along with their results.The book is meant for CS students of all ages, teachers, parents, and really anyone who wants to get the wonderful taste of the entertaining and creative aspect of Computer Programming.Why learn programming: The idea of using computer programming as a medium for learning is rapidly gaining acceptance. The benefits of learning programming and computer science concepts well before college - even in elementary grades - are well-understood. Here is a list of some of the amazing things that happen when children and young adults engage in computer programming: - They become active and creative learners, because they explore ideas through a hands-on activity with an infinitely powerful tool.- They learn to think about and analyze their own thinking, because that is the only way to program computers.- They learn to solve complex problems by breaking them into smaller sub-problems.- They learn a new way of thinking (called "computational" thinking).- In the world of programming, answers are not simply "right" or "wrong"; this prepares a student's mindset for real-life problems.- The learning process is transformed from acquiring facts to thinking creatively and analytically.How the book is organized: The book is organized as a series of chapters - each containing a bunch of concepts and associated programming activities. Every chapter includes review questions and several programming assignments that will help you practice all the concepts learnt till then. Answers to all "review questions" and links to working programs for most of the programming exercises in the book are available online.
