Introduction to Coding and Our Language

1.1 What is Coding?

Coding is like giving instructions to a robot. Imagine teaching a robot how to make a sandwich - you need to break down every single step clearly and precisely.

// Example of giving instructions to a computer
DISPLAY("1. Get two slices of bread").
DISPLAY("2. Add butter").
DISPLAY("3. Add filling").

1.2 Why Do We Need Coding?

Coding powers everything from video games to smartphones. Even a simple calculator uses code!

// Simple calculator example
NUMBER num1 = 5.
NUMBER num2 = 3.
DISPLAYNL("Sum is: " ,(num1 + num2)).
DISPLAYNL("Product is: " ,(num1 * num2)).
