Algorithms
A course that explores the fundamentals of algorithms. How do we make them? How do they work?
We explore what is needed to multiply two numbers. We discover branching and iteration.
Lesson Plan
1. Exploring the Challenge
To make a loop, we need to learn how to jump
Lesson Plan
lock2. Iterations (Loops)
(requires student license or teacher account)
We start automating loops.
Lesson Plan
lock3. Automating Loops, Part 1
(requires student license or teacher account)
We fully automate loops with the help of a Data RAM module
