Computational Literacy: Get with the Program
Mark Sample has posted five basic statements, ahem, I mean 5 BASIC statements, on computational literacy.
I must point out that while they are all programs, the third and fifth ones actually include multiple statements. And, the program that number 4 is referring to is:
10 PRINT "GOODBYE CRUEL WORLD"
20 NEW
Very much worth a read – from the standpoint of understanding programming and its cultural intersections generally, not only because Mark is promoting the book that he, I, and eight others wrote, which will be published in November.
