Educational package to learn computational thinking and other basic programming concepts

EduWorld

EduWorld is an educational python package designed for students to learn computational thinking, algorithms, and other basic programming concepts. Through this process they learn how to divide a problem into smaller steps and refine them; to abstract; to recognize patterns; and to design and implement algorithms;

Conceptually it is based on KuMir Robot and Karel the Robot.

Oop style sample

This sample is not as polished as simple version listed above, and not the final version

from eduworld import Application, Board, AlgoWorldBoard, Robot


app: Application = Application()
board: Board = AlgoWorldBoard("demo-world")
app.set_board(board)

r: Robot = board.get_default_robot()

app.run()


r.put()
r.right()
r.put()
r.right()

r.left()
r.pickup()
r.left()
r.pickup()

a.shutdown()
