- 17. Overview • What isprogramming • Introduction to Terminal • Ruby programming language • Write a computer program game • Your own cloud computer (if we have time)
- 18. What is Programming Computerprogramming (often shortened to programming) is a process that leads from an original formulation of a computing problem to executable computer programs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming Computer programming (often shortened to programming) is a process that leads from an original formulation of a computing problem to executable computer programs.
- 19. What is Programming Aprocess where we • Define & understand problems • Decide how to solve the problem step by step • Writing code in the selected programming language
- 20. Computers are Stupid •They do not think as humans • They only do what we tell them to do
- 21. FizzBuzz For each numberfrom 1 to 100, if a number is divisible by 3, write “Fizz”, whereas if a number is divisible by 5, write “Buzz”. For all other numbers, just write the number.
- 22. Understanding the Problem •Number 1 -> write 1 • Number 3 -> write Fizz • Number 5 -> write Buzz • Number 15 -> ?

- 31. Terminal • Terminal isa text-based interface to the operating system • Think Windows Explorer / Finder, but in text • More powerful than GUI, but header to learn Editor • A tool which we can edit texts in files
- 32. Ruby Language • Rubyis a programming language, it allows us to write programs that will be run on computers • It’s very high-level, it looks a lot like the human language
- 33. Language Syntax • Computersare stupid • They can’t understand our words, even very basic sentence • Strict sets of vocabulary & syntax • E.g. if … else (but not if … otherwise)
- 34. Programming Syntax • thearrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed sentences in a language
- 35. Guess the Number •Program chooses a random number between 0 and 100 • Player tries to guess the number, getting a hint (“too low” or “too high”) • Game ends when player guesses the number
- 36.
- 37. Guess the Numberv2 • Program tells player how many tries she needed to guess the number correctly • Program shows player all the previous tries
- 38. Guess the Numberv3 • Program asks for player’s name, and remembers the last result of each player
